ANZ95 is one of the lowest powered coaches Ellisons have. That being new as YJ16ELW, its sisters ELV and ELX, all have DAF 460 engines in whereas the majority have DAF 510. The coaches new this year all have the DAF 530 in. The new VanHools also have Allison 6 Speed gearboxes fitted rather than the 12 Speed ZF AS Tronic, giving a much smoother ride and absolute rockets off the mark.
Not many MAN engined ones left now either. 18BOS, AIG321, ONU77 and NLE145 being the only ones. .

Really interesting I hadn’t realised how much of a horse power difference there was between the Van Hools. Those DAF 530 ones must go some, especially with that Allison box you describe.

How many of the coaches are currently wrapped for Premier League teams. I know the Liverpool and City coaches are, I remember Chelsea having a wrap a while back on a Van Hool but haven’t seen that one about. Have Southampton got any special design as they had on the Starliner?
