On Manor Top towards Prince of Wales Road from Ridgeway Road, a White Optare Metrorider with Teal Skirt at 08:52-registered what I thought was W673DDN
Woodside Teal and White Bova is now registered B2TVT.
At 12:50 on Norton Avenue away from Gleadless Town-End I saw a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, registered 980MKJ. It has a Mercedes-Benz symbol on the rear doors and is lit up like a Christmas Tree.

Thanks for that Shaun.
Interesting about Woodside's Bova - I presumed that the B-TVT mark had been returned to Tees Valley when the Javelin was re-registered. I'll have to find out whether it's a new one or not - the one in my pics already has a private plate (J7BBC)

To confirm the Woodside Bova:
It is actually registered B3TVT and is a second of the type. It is yet another ex-Tees Valley vehicle and remains in their livery. The B3TVT mark was returned upon request to Tees Valley, but has remarkably rejoined Woodside having been transferred to the Bova shortly before sale! Apparently this time Woodside are to keep the mark as Tees Valley claim it is 'too much trouble to keep re-registering'. The previous identity is unknown at this moment, however it is confirmed as C72F (+ driver + courier).
The original Bova, J7BBC, is now repainted in silver with red fleetnames but is still in the garage receiving finishing touches - it is due for MOT on 13th April.

Does anybody know who owns White Transit DA04JVV-I noticed this at Hillsborough Corner towards Middlewood, and has a Schoolbus Sign. I think this may be owned by Myers grove school at stannington. |

Slight correction - the reg is actually AE04 AUP And Mark happens to be a friend of mine, so here we go:  MG Travel - 16 luxury seater minibus - Fully insured - Seatbelts fitted - Reliable Service  sybus.fotopic.net/p62643422.html |

I saw Maxfields Coach B530BML, at least 4 times today. It was parked up on Commercial Street, outside at 11:49, 13:20 and 14:00. I then saw it going down Spital Hill at 14:49. It is in Maxfields Cream, with Green Fleetnames and I am 100% sure this has First Corporate or very similar Coach Seating.
I also saw a White Ford Transit/Chassis Developments on Arundel Gate at 09:00, registered W605XBA. Its not a Council Minibus.

Yeah, the Transit has been around locally quite a bit recently. I think it belongs to Duckmanton Minibus Hire / Community Transport or something similar.
We WILL get to the bottom of these seats btw! It's definitely never been owned by First, so it is either a re-seat or they are a very sinilar pattern.
