Hey hang on a mo there it's not just a Catapiller D5B Dozer it's a S D5B, because it has more power than the one 10 years before
I'm not trying to take anything away from any of the models as i do like them really (even the oil burners) but the S badges used to be retained for the really special models. Just look at the original S1 for instance, bearing in mind we’re we are talking early to mid 80’s the 2.1 5 pot engine producing 500+ bhp, massive turbo lag that made for no low end grunt but to overcome this they fitted anti lag. A system that threw fuel (PETROL) down in the turbo to keep it spinning, even when the throttle was closed. This made huge bangs and exhaust flames that would make old people pee themselves. Now that’s what an S should be, not the van that brought it there. Don’t even get me started on the Pikes Peak version produced when Group B was banned
i think Mouton still holds the record for going up over there 25 years ago!!
So ok maybe I got a little carried away there and not all S’s should be like that but you know what I mean.
