When does Shearings normally get there 2015 coaches delivered ?
Will Shearings be purchasing single axle coaches or is the double rear axle the way there going these days ?
RE: Shearings/National Holidays - james solomon - 22/02/2015 13:01
They had the Scania Irizar I6 triaxle on evaluation last year along with single axle Mercedes Tourismo. Since Setra have pulled out from the UK market with there euro six offering it will be anyone's guess as to what they go for now

Shearings did have a lot of Setra's , but seemingly was not enough for them to stay in the UK market.
Wonders whether it will a case of stick for a year with what they have got whilst they evaluate a couple of different vehicle types again , then next year go into the market for a bigger order.

Shearings - Setra replacement has been confirmed as the new fleet vehicle is Mercedes Tourismos with the first lot confirmed as NH15BCH/CCH/DCH/ECH/FCH/GCH/HCH/JCH for National Holidays and BN15WXU/V/W/X/Y/Z and BN15WYA/B/C for Shearings. Panthers NH04BCH and NH04DCH have left the fleet

Shearings - Mercedes Tourismo BF15XPE/T/U/V/W/X are here. Tourismos 734 and 740 are wearing Shearings blue Grand Tourer livery.
To be honest the new Grand Tourer livery sucks the gold was way better in my opinion the blue just kills it

I also agree it looked like something that made you think you was getting something more for the money you was spending with the company.
I haven't seen the blue on a Tourismo yet , how different from the blue of the normal shearings livery is it ?

i know the Setra is not being made now but the vehicles looks sleek , but i dont think the lines of the Tourismo suits that livery
