Cambridge cLASSIC COACH HIRE
"Mary" is a 1982 Leyland Tiger with Plaxton Supreme V Express bodywork.
She has 53 seats.
She has been almost completely rebuilt having been rescued from open storage on Romney Marsh in 2012, where she had languished untouched for six years.
She has been restored as far as possible to her original condition and colours when purchased new in 1982 along with five identical sisters with registrations LFT 1X to LFT 6X. "Mary" (5X) is the only survivor and so is unique in the world.
The purchaser was the original OK Motor Services of Bishop Auckland, County Durham, a company originally formed as the Gaunless Valley Motor Company in 1912. That company was eventually taken over in 1995.
Where possible we have used original materials from steelwork to seat covers. She is very comfortable to ride in and, like Lady Sarah, is very open and un-claustrophobic.
We are proud to have revived the OK name and operate Mary as an homage to the much-loved north-eastern operator.
