Amsterdam, 8 December 2025 – The winner of the online auction of the millionth Scania has been announced. Jaro Impex, based in Hem (North Holland), placed the highest bid via Troostwijk Auctions and is now the proud new owner of the unique Scania 770S V8 6x2 anniversary truck. The auction attracted significant international interest, generating a total of 53,970 views on the lot.
Wietse Versteeg, Lead Mobility bij Troostwijk Auctions, looks back on an exceptional process:
“Scania and Troostwijk Auctions are proud of the result and of our collaboration. The buyer has known Troostwijk Auctions for years and immediately knew he wanted to purchase this lot. We’ve been featured in many different countries and media — wonderful to see the reach a platform like Troostwijk Auctions can generate.”
During the Mega Trucks Festival in Den Bosch, owner Guus Lansink received the key yesterday from Jan de Vries, Director Sales at Scania Netherlands.
A piece of Scania history
Earlier this year, the millionth chassis rolled off the production line at Scania Production Zwolle. The truck was subsequently transformed into an impressive showtruck, attracting significant attention throughout the anniversary year at various festivals and events. As a result, the 770S V8 evolved into a rolling symbol of the one million Scania chassis built in the Netherlands.
Guus Lansink (Jaro Impex):
“When I first saw the millionth Scania this summer, I jokingly said: I’m going to buy that one. It was mostly enthusiasm at the time, but it stuck with me. That it actually turned out this way makes the story complete. You don’t buy a piece of Scania history every day. We are incredibly proud to be the new owners.”
A truck with character
The anniversary truck has been fully custom-built, featuring the powerful 770 hp V8 engine, a luxurious S-cab and numerous unique details inside and out. The sapphire-blue paintwork with gold accents, the Zwolle skyline on the sides and the anniversary design make the truck instantly recognisable. The interior — crafted by Cool Guys Customs — features black leather with gold stitching, perfectly matching the celebratory character of this special edition.
A collaboration that creates reach
With the handover of the millionth truck, Scania concludes a remarkable anniversary year, while Jaro Impex begins a new and special chapter. For Troostwijk Auctions, this auction once again demonstrates the power of digital auctioning: fast, transparent and with international reach.
