- Volvo spares are frightfully expensive - Hence, Private operators would take a long call before going in for any repairs - STUs squander public money, the more spares they buy the more someone in their system makes money, hardly any accountability and efficiency in spend - The more the competition (B7R has unleashed the domestic competition to follow suit), the heat on B7R will intensify, and you will see more operators switching over to King Longs, Luxuras, etc who may be as good (maybe a little below par), but at far lower capex and operating costs - The falling B7R sale is testimony to its falling popularity - the same thing happened with Volvo's FM7 and FH12 which stopped selling (but for niche applications) thanks to the heavy repair and spares costs | |

The MAN cab as well as the engines that Force is introducing in India have been phased out in Europe but are still good enough and a lot better than the typical Indian lorry. | |
