Top stuff. Used to work in Shetland semi regularly and always kind of enjoyed the boat journey... buying a bottle or two of wine in Aberdeen beforehand always helps though!

Great story and collection thread,  good to see it all worked out. 

If I was up earlier I could have popped along and said hello, I live  about 10 minutes walk from the city center/Harbor.

Both... yet neither! It did have van doors at some point but another operator rebuilt the back end with the hatch back. In doing so they made it a 4 door, having been a 5 door. I believe it's Nightfire Red but don't quote me - I'll check with the painter when I next see him.

 

It was our only 16 seater and it went bloody everywhere. The Renfrewshire Council school board was from a farm contract it did daily until June 2014. Otherwise it more or less spent every weekend either touring or in Newcastle/Blackpool/Liverpool on stags/hens or with dancers all over the country. It never put a foot wrong in all that time.

 

These pictures were taken on it's last tour which with me on September 5th last year; we were taken over on October 1st and it was more or less immediately withdrawn from service as surplus to requirements.

Good old Austin-Rover Nightfire! There aren't many vehicles which look rubbish in a dark metallic red. This one certainly looks classier than white'n'rust, or some dull blue.

My reliable Worcestershire Sauces are telling me it's a conspiracy. Or maybe just a condiment.
