The bus saw quite a lot whilst in service including going through a front rebuild, a full engine replacement and repairs to the gearbox before it was decommissioned in 2021 and entered life in preservation with a previous owner - it's then that the bus was repainted!

Our bus was originally destined for the West Country however, due to fleet shortages, was delivered to First (Mainline), now better known as First South Yorkshire, for use in Sheffield, Doncaster, Rotherham and Barnsley.
