Hi DD12. 31782 is here for an engine overhaul, however I'm in the midst of an engine rebuild on 69213 from Doncaster and I've got 36245 from Sheffield here in bits as well.

(after 7 months away in the sun) I've been busy rebuilding an engine on a Volvo for Stoke this week so I'm not directly involved with the Daimler at the moment. There is a spare MOT test slot which is being kept open. Our tests are done at Mot...

Re: Former Enviro300s
Such a waste.. I love them. Brilliant engines, great gearboxes, simple air suspension. A far better vehicle than a million kilometre Citaro. I can't believe they're going to be cut up

Re: 6015
It was nice to finally get to drive it. With loads of mot tests to do we decided to free up the pit and create a bit of space. She's back in the body shop now awaiting a bit more attention.

Aah, Enviro 300's. My favourite bus to work on. It's a shame they're being scrapped now
