The first of a new type of midicoach for Batley, West Yorkshire-based Star Coaches is a Mercedes-Benz Atego with Noone Turas 900 bodywork, supplied by Minis to Midis (01302 892060).
The Turas 900 is built on the 10.5t GVW Atego chassis. During the construction process, the dash is moved rearwards to allow passengers to board and alight directly opposite the driver. Star’s is finished in the operator’s metallic blue livery.
“This is a stunning-looking vehicle and we wish Star Coaches safe, happy and profitable motoring,” says Minis to Midis General Manager Paul Gardner.
