I'm surprised the baby 09 reg Solo has attracted a higher bid than the 07 reg Centro. I wonder if any of the bidders for the baby Solo plan to remove 3 seats so that it can be classed as a minibus?

W469BCW sold to Howard's/ Springfield Warrington. Howard's collection W469BCW on the way to new home today. Howard's Facebook report today.
We should be finding out soon who has won the new 5 year contracts for former GHA services in Cheshire East, which start in October. It could be some operators will want to acquire more buses if they win the contracts and consequently place bids on the ongoing auctions. For instance, D&G are currently using loaned buses and old Darts which they hadn't been using in regular service for a while.

Llew Jones - Route 55/X5
From today (8th August) Llew Jones will be providing the 55/X5 service on behalf of Denbighshire County Council. The service had been, until last week, operated by Coastline of Rhyl using a minibus. The service from today will follow an emergency timetable and now includes certain journeys extended to Wrexham as the X5. I have updated my former GHA routes table accordingly - LINK
Llew Jones has also purchased from finance companies ex GHA Solo vehicles YJ54ZYB, YJ54ZYE, YM52TPV, YM52TPY and YJ06YSE
YJ06YSE seen in Mold yesterday working the 14 service to Denbigh -
