Volvo F12-20 Globetrotter & semi-trailer 1/32 Heller

The first large modern models of the "80 generation" it was in the autumn of 1977 that the F12 tractors for the traction of semi-trailers were launched, replacing the F89s that appeared in 1970. These models with an entirely new advanced cab benefited from the research that had led to the launch of the N models in 1973. This was especially true of the special high-strength steel chassis, and the elements of the driveline, also improved and reinforced. The serial use of aluminium tanks and leaf springs with a parabolic profile resulted from the need to minimise the weight of the tractor in favour of increasing the market load. On board the F12 the working conditions of the driver became excellent, which is essential on the considerable distances of international transport.
