Plaxton Centenary Display at Showbus 2007
A fascinating mix of Plaxtons. First on the right is a Paramount bodied Dennis Javelin from Lodge's, sister the coach from the same batch entered by David H Harrod Coaches, this is followed by a Paramount bodied Quest 80VM built for Excelsior. Next up is the preserved Great Ouse Valley Panorama Elite III bodied Bedford YRQ followed by the white Bedford YMP. The next is a bus in West Midlands PTE livery. The bus was built by and new to Midland Red, one of their S23 models. These buses had their bodies finished by Plaxton. Two more unidentified Supremes finish the line.

Hills of Tredegar Leyland Leopard Plaxton Panorama Elite Express EWO460K
Leyland capitalised on their success in selling a large fleet of Tigers to Hills of Tredegar with the advertising slogan "The Hills Are Alive With the Sound of Tigers", this however is a Leyland Leopard with Panorama Elite Express coachwork. The coaches were in Hills red and white colours. Somehow this coach, EWO460K, does not ring true: I do not recall Hills of Tredegar operating for National Express.

Barton Plaxton Paramount &  Elites
Three Barton Leopards together at SHOWBUS. The newer is Supreme IV bodied 564 (KAU564V) and the other two are a pair from the same batch with Elite coachwork: 1235 (RVO657L) and 1246 (RVO668L).
