Just like EWS753W a MONSTER, 680 VR,s are the coolest double deckers in Christenedom, roar and scream like the divas they are.

What a crap seat! Comes halfway up his back. Whats the point of the head rest?

Engine sounds sweet rob nice work and well done too

Very good.

Very good.

I remember the sense of danger sitting on the seat behind the driver WITH THE DOORS OPEN brill times :D

Can't somehow see Greta behind the wheel 😅😅

Witam. Czy to sound engine SW 680? Pozdrawiam

hung on 2 tiers

That sounds exactly like the west minster Abby Bells

Loved my constructor mixer and 10 speed spicer set up, pre-select high or low ready for the next gear and just dip the clutch and so it continued, micro switch used to wear and the air filter on the box used to clog up which would delay gear selection sometimes🙈

When I first started driving ,my first truck was a leyland roadtrain ! Not knowing any better I thought it was great ……….until a year later I got a DAF 3600 ! It was like stepping into the future . Today driving a Volvo FH16 750 hp across Europe I can only be grateful that technology didn’t end with that DAF 3600……although I do miss the fact that when I first started the speed limiter was my right foot and there were no mobile phones or cameras watching my every move ! Once I left the yard I was uncontactable …..yet the work still got done !

Wasn't there a T45 Drivers club back in the 80s..??

PLH198W My dad s unit with tl11 or 12 in it .

Very good double de clutching pretty slick driving. Only thing with the splitter so much leg work. Preferred the Eaton Fuller range change in my brothers Constructor far less bother. Leyland made very good trucks back in the day. Non assisted clutch needed a left leg like Arnie😁❤

Not his first rodeo with that box

It was all about knowing when you could let go of the key !!!!

And man in love with his gearbox...

Hi rob why not bring her out in the streets if Brighton

I kid you not. I found this on VHS today at the carboot 😅

Great to hear these bells, a lovely sounding octave, not too dissimilar to Privett closer to us.

Thanks for uploading these, been wanting to hear them!

Lovely minor third tierce. Remind me of Caterham.

I always like the Leylands, bar the ride quality. Everything else was just so functional and made for the job.

dose the clock chime here?

Nou

We're these layland engines based on the same principle as ee locomotive engines loadsnof fuel to aid compression rather than heat and fire one cylinder at a time?

Hereford= England

I've been lucky enough to drive a few T45's , day cab,sleeper cab and a couple of Scammell versions. Build quality wasn't the best but they were very nice to drive and the mattress was comfortable in the sleeper cabs.

Wow where's the 7th

That classic signature hum from these buses... still miss it. These rides seemed very futuristic back in the day.

LMAO... where there's smoke there's 🔥🔥

Another brilliant video Rob. ♥️👍

Drove that one and 274 and 276 for many many miles on the 700s out of Chichester. A shame the 0.680 engines in the other two were replaced with 6LXBs

Extended Bodies for Most of the Buses Much as I am not comfortable asking the depot why they stopped running the London Suburban Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Gardner 6LX and Gardner 6LXC Diesel Engine Olympian ECW’s on routes 30, 121, 230, 271, 349, N279 And 158 why can’t we make the same make of the Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Gardner 6LX and Gardner 6LXC Diesel Engine Olympian ECW Buses but Modernise the insides of these Buses. Also, make it low floor up and down and also extend the middle body part of these vehicles a little bit more so there will be more space for the wheelchair users. By the way, if you could remake and Modernise these vehicles could they also make them into a Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Gardner 6LX and Gardner 6LXC Diesel Engine Olympian ECW Version’s that if it will be possible to Modernise the insides of these Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Gardner 6LX and Gardner 6LXC Diesel Engine Olympian ECW’s make it low floor up and down and also extend the middle body part of these vehicles a little bit more so there will be more space and even a London Suburban 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Scania N230UD Enviro 400 MMCs and 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Gardner 6LX Diesel engine Enviro 400 MMC’s and also extend the middle the body part of these vehicles a little bit more. Why couldn’t we have those London Suburban Buse's Pale red on the top roof Pale red again on the top middle Milk Chocolate brown on the middle Creamy white on the Bottom Middle and Milk Chocolate Brown again on the Bottom on most of those kinds of those Particular Double Decker Vehicles? Could you put the Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox in the Scania N230UD Enviro 400 MMCs and also put the Loud 3-Speed Voith Diwa Gearbox in the Volvo TD102KF Engine East Lancs Olympus and also extend the the middle body part of these vehicles a little bit more and also turn most of them to a London Suburban Buses. By the way, could you also make the routes 349, 121, N279 and 271 into a London Suburban Buses and have a a mixture of a Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Scania N230UD Enviro 400 MMC and Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Gardner 6LX and Gardner 6LXC Diesel Engine Olympian ECW Versions. Could they also transfer the Arriva Bus Depots from Hackney to Stagecoach company so they can replace all the Arriva buses so that all of them can go to Birmingham and Leeds and they can be replaced by Stagecoach Loud 3-Speed Voith Diwa Gearbox Volvo TD102KF Engine East Lancs Olympus and also Extend the Middle body part of these Vehicles and that includes A Mixture of a Stagecoach Loud 3-Speed Voith Diwa Gearbox Volvo TD102KF, Gardner 6LXC and Gardner 6LXCT Engine Northern Counties Palatine One and that Includes a Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Gardner 6LX Diesel engine Enviro 400 MMC’s and Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Scania N230UD Enviro 400 MMC Vehicles A Little Bit More? Can Arriva London Bus Company Replace Most of their Wight Buses so they can also transfer them to Birmingham and Also Manchester so they can be replaced by Loud 3-Speed ZF Ecomat Gearboxes Volvo D10A Engine East Lancs Olympus and also Extend the Middle body part of these Vehicles A Little Bit More Thank You Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Much. Oh by the way could the bus Factory Companies also Make More of Those Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Gardner 6LX and Gardner 6LXC Diesel engine Olympian ECW Vehicles And that also includes Those Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Cummins L10 Enviro 400 MMC And also Extend the The middle Body part of those Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Gardner 6LX and Gardner 6LXC Diesel Engine Olympian ECW Vehicles and the Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Cummins L10 Enviro 400 MMC Vehicles and that also includes The Loud 3-Speed ZF Ecomat Gearboxes Volvo D10A Engine East Lancs Olympus A Little Bit More And Paint Those 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Cummins L10 Enviro 400 MMC Vehicles and also those Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Gardner 6LX and Gardner 6LXC Diesel engine Olympian ECW Vehicles and that also includes The Northern Counties Palatine One with a Volvo TD102KF, Gardner 6LXC and Gardner 6LXCT Diesel engines with a Loud 3-Speed Voith Diwa Gearboxes and The Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Scania N230UD Enviro 400 MMC Vehicles and also The Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Gardner 6LX Diesel engine Enviro 400 MMC Vehicles to the Grey Green Colours Just Like The Other Original Scania Grey Green on the Bus Route 125, 173, 313 and the 103. If all of the 14 Leyland Titan B15s are Fully Red and even Mostly Red, could they also Repaint All of Those 14 Leyland Titan B15s into Grey Green Colours Just Like The Other Original Scania Grey Green on the Bus Route 313 so they can Reuse them for Only Every 6 and a Half Months and also Reuse them on those Rail Replacement London Bus Routes if that will Be Alright for Only Just Every 6 and a Half Months, starting from the beginning of October and also Reuse Those Buses Only on the London Bus Routes which are The 341, N41, 34, 123, N29, 149, 221, N73, 121, 86, 30, 262, 147, 396, 41, and N26 so Please make sure that the builders can do as they are told!!!! And please do something about these Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Important Professional Ideas Please Please Prime Minister and also includes the Mayor of London.

Greta Thunburg would love this😂
