Bus & Coach
Scania has announced two wins for its coach business, with an Irizar i6 for Stephensons of Easingwold and an Irizar Century for Milligans Coach Travel.
North Yorkshire-based Stephensons has taken delivery of a Scania K 360 IB4x2 coach with Irizar i6 bodywork (pictured). The 12.45m long vehicle has 53 passenger seats with three-point seat belts, leather headrests, a centre sunken washroom, a full Bosch Professional Line entertainment system with DVD player and twin monitors, reversing camera and alloy wheels. The vehicle features Scania's two pedal automated Opticruise gearbox, and is supplied with a two-year R&M package supported by the local Scania service centre in Thirsk. Milligans Coach Travel's latest addition, meanwhile, is an Irizar Century model, its fourth with this chassis/body combination since 2012. Based on a Euro 5 Scania K 400 EB4x2 chassis with the Opticruise automated gearbox, the vehicle's Irizar Century body has 49 reclining seats, three-point seatbelts, a Bosch professional entertainment package, extra dark tinted glass, centre sunken toilet and Durabright alloy wheels. Billy Milligan, director at the Ayrshire-based operator, says: "Standardising means that we now carry an imprest stock of Scania parts so that vehicles are not off the road for any great length of time."
