Schaeffer's Transport has put the first Dutch-style DAF XG into service. I had already posted photos last week as well. In the Australian truck scene, Peterbilt trucks are primarily styled, and little attention is given to the styling of European brands. Schaeffer's changed that. Following the example of Dutch Style, he added a new DAF XG to his fleet and had it styled according to the Dutch model.

The PX-15 is 225 kg lighter and more economical than the X-15. Engineered for the DAF XG and XG+ in Australia, the PACCAR PX-15 is an automotive masterwork. The new generation engine platform features a sculpted, ladder frame style block, significantly increasing the performance levels possible from a 15-litre engine.

* = "𝑴𝒐𝒓𝒕𝒐𝒏 𝑽𝒆𝒆𝒍 𝑷𝒂𝒂𝒓𝒅𝒆𝒏
This typically UK/Scottish-styled DAF truck has a Dutch inscription above the grille: “Morton Veel Paarden.” It is probably a personal or regional wordplay. “Morton” most likely refers to the Morton/Thornhill area in Dumfriesshire, where the Marchbank family and business have strong local connections.

“Veel Paarden” literally means “many horses” in Dutch. There may also be a Gaelic connection: 𝘮𝘰̀𝘳𝘢𝘯 𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘩 “many horses” in Scottish Gaelic.

So the phrase may be a playful reference to Morton, Scottish/Gaelic heritage, and the area's historical connection with horses.

I have not found a direct explanation confirming the exact meaning, so this is only the most plausible interpretation. If anyone knows what it actually means, I’d be very interested to hear!
