15/08/2013 - Maynes order Vanhool again for 2014

Three-quarters of a million pounds' investment

Following on from our 2013 order for three Daf Vanhools and our excellent customer and driver feedback, we are again pleased to announce we have another three coaches currently on build at the factory in Belgium. We have repeated an order from Arriva Bus and Coach for three Vanhool Daf TX15 coaches for the 2014 season.

The new coaches will be built by Vanhool to our exacting executive specification complete with 49 seats, full air-con, w.c, hot and cold drinks and an on-board entertainment system. The new coaches will blend into our touring and private hire fleet undertaking a mixed workload throughout the UK and Europe.

This total investment of around £770k allows Maynes to continue to keep our fleet age profile to be one of the youngest in the UK. More fleet upgrades are due to be finalised in the coming months that will see some extra smaller coaches arriving with us for 2014. This shows our continued commitment to our customers that "Travelling The Mayne Way " is to travel in a first class vehicle, specifically selected for its comfort, reliability and safety.

Our coach operating business was established by James Mayne in 1947 we have expanded greatly over the years and now operate coaches from our depots in Buckie, Elgin and Orkney.
