what a lovely old bus- black,despite a bugger to keep clean etc, really is a top colour in my view, esp with black trim.
good work!

Yes mine passed on Monday with not even an advise.

I had to get some new tyres as the old ones were 16 years old and though had plenty of tread had no wet grip.

Found some new pirelli scorpions in the correct size and H rated.

Hi Steve

I see that 136/8494 was originally Colorado Yellow and with Reg No JUT 51 L

I have you recorded as the owner of LNV 669 L in Dark Green with a Beige interior from 2002 until at least 2017
Is this the same car?

Kind regards
