I remember there was a similar sideways rear seat arrangement on the WCC Woosh Mercs when they were on the W1 park and ride.

Not seen any yet, but then I’m unlikely to as I haven’t looked!

Nice to see the "old Worcestershire" (UY) trade plate -- -- does anyone know how long this has been used by WR garage please ?

Also, I really like the sophisticated shade of red for the rears, I think it complements the cerise very well -- --

I would describe it as a purply blackcurrant with a hint of burgundy :D

I wonder if Tim Brown can tell us the correct name for it ??

'Deep Purple in Rock' perhaps, especially amongst the granite of The Wyche Cutting. What a stunning backdrop with most of Worcestershire in view!
