Ex Malta Public Transport Volvos/Optares

[RustySpoons]

If I remember correctly, they were all driven there and back.

Also, I recall noting that whilst those registered BUS 353-7 were / are B43F, those registered BUS 358 upwards were / are B44F.

That'll have certainly been a good shakedown for them!

I've noticed that there are two different seat designs on the B7s, no idea what their actual names are other than one has white grab handles on the top and the other has black! I'm guessing one is the 43 and the other the 44 seater.

Sorry if it's been mentioned:
Former Malta Solos seem to have KXxx registrations and I know Vectare have KX15 BJZ.

It was only 14 plates that made it to Malta, they'll have all been back in the UK (or at least on their way back) by the time 15 plates were on the road.
