Wiking 050903 – Magirus, heavy duty truck “Toense”

Toense-Magirus was always reliable.

The air-cooled Deutz diesel roared beneath the body of the Magirus Transeuropa cab. Indeed, the tractor unit served the heavy-duty specialist Toense for years, providing rewarding haulage work. Particularly striking at the start of series production was the stepped long-distance driver’s cab, which offered the driver significantly more comfort than the previous Magirus generation, meeting the demands of the time. WIKING miniaturized the then-innovative long-distance haulage version of the Magirus 235 D based on historical documents from 1963. Magirus’s cab-over-engine generation was presented at the IAA in 1963 and, thanks to its reliable, air-cooled Deutz engines, quickly found its way into numerous haulage fleets.

The cab is zinc yellow, the interior is black. The chassis with trailer coupling and drive shaft is zinc yellow. The rims and fenders are black. Black Toense lettering is on the front and doors. Black-printed fenders on the cab side. Orange indicators, red-printed taillights. Zinc-yellow heavy-duty flatbed with black Toense lettering.
