Wow! Some lovely vehicles there Colin; now where's my lottery win? Thanks for the big cat close ups! Got me thinking now- Is really like a Tiger Cub and Lion badge to add to my collection!

Fantastic classics there. Love the Snaiths Leyland. Is that a Lion?
Used to be a member of Lathalmond museum myself many years ago.

We used a Bedford OB Coach at our wedding for weding transport. Was brilliant!

Yeah it's a Lion, it was petrol but it would never run right so it got a diesel transplant a couple of years ago

Oh yes! Thankyou very much! A fine mark two! No 500 series clatter with that one! Actually that reminds me, I was at a garage when I heard that sound, looked round to see a........ Leyland Leopard! Apparently it was a prototype- bit with a 510 engine!
