MP travel use 2nd hand coaches on Megabus M11 at weekends they now have a new coach for this mind you but did start with 2nd hand. now they cant hire in coaches without being wheelchair accessible. On RR they need permit but this is till end of year and they have to be only used once they are 100% sure they cant find a wheelchair accessible. They are more likey now to just hire mini buses from taxi firms.

The mod for a wheelchair lift is not cheap.

has always been shortsighted for anyone over last few years to buy non wheelchair accessible.

Shearings/National Holidays missed a selling point by having coaches with lifts due to age of customers

None of Shearings Holidays Coaches actually were owned by them but a leasing company , it seems the whole company in the last few years was about leasing just about everything. A business model that works when everything falls into place but when a shock to the system like the Coronavirus Pandemic comes along falls apart.

So its the Leasing company that has repossessed the vehicles and is now trying to obtain some money back for them while they can to offset there losses.

Coronavirus will collect more casualties on the way , this company wont be the only one to feel the wrath of it.
