Yes and true to form they appear to be operating illegally as they don't have the appropriate licences to operate a vehicle dismantlers / scrap metal business from the premises Hammer
Hopefully Natural Resources Wales aren't as slow to react to a company flouting the law as VOSA and the TC were previously....

Well they do have experience in breaking buses under GHA. They took on decent new buses and allowed them to break through poor maintenance. Wink

Doesn't surprise me one bit infact when I saw their advertisement on Facebook last night I couldn't help but laugh.

.
Shortly after the collapse of GHA some ten vehicles were re-possessed by Close Brothers Finance and were taken to the yard of Bakers Travel, Knypersley, Stoke-On-Trent and offered for sale by Harringtons. During the last 15 months only AA06 GHA, WX05 XVN and W465 WGH appear to have been sold. The latter, which is a President, to a dance troupe in the Eccles area. The other seven have now been taken to an auction and are to be sold on 11th November 2017. - LINK -
