Er, except thats a Leyland Leopard! Doh!

But yeah, the Tiger foes, although needs some tinkering.
My RE should be on the road in some semblence of looking half decent for next season.
You have plans young Vanster?

BTW, the shed in Wales fell through. Not big enough by a long margin.
So the hunt goes on......

Coaches don't float mate...never have...never will....

go TO a paddling EVENT in a coach, read carefully and there was no intention of running a river in a bus, though i can think of a few Chillian rivers you could actually run a bus in!

Canoeing is not my bag mate...have done it a couple of times but doesn't float my boat if you know what I mean....

Why are coaches named after versions of Mac OS?

docchevron132 · Post by **docchevron132** » 26 Oct 2007

Is there a Mac OS called RE??
Cos my coach is an RE!

Leyland called all there buses after cats, hence Tiger, Leopard, Lynx, Panther etc, duno why, they just did.

Dennis went with sharp pointy things like Lance, Dart, Trident etc...

Volvo just went with a B then some numbers, cos they're Swedish tossers.

Not to mention those shitty arrow deckers we had from London a few years back!
Way back in ancient history, c1920, there was a Dennis lancet minibus type breadvan thing!

BTW CG, did you know the VR in s***h africa was known as the Leyland Lion????
