1 of the best kickdown videos i've seen, love how the way he floors it :)

[@KickdownLondon]

Glad you enjoyed it - these were so ace to drive!

[@joepublic200]

Good video! Just shocked to see those roads fairly clear for such thrash :)

[@joshuahalla.k.a.controlla6333]

Great video.☺️ I think I might have already watched this video a few years ago.☺️

[@KickdownLondon]

I watch it every now and again - reminds me of how enjoyable it was to be driving these!

[@joshuahalla.k.a.controlla6333]

cbreezer15 These are very nice buses. The best ones are the LF52 ones that Go Ahead London use to have the ex BV Bus Garage but they are now in Yorkshire with a company called Yorkpullman and have been converted into a single door bus. My favourite was LF52 THU and LF52 TGU because of their whining gearboxes.☺️

@@joshuahalla.k.a.controlla6333 Yes, they were great to ride on the 180 between Abbey Wood and Belvedere. They are missed!

[@joshuahalla.k.a.controlla6333]

@@KickdownLondon yep, I can agree that the best place on the route 180 is between Belvedere and Abbey Wood. ☺️

[@adampeacock8867]

Nice, I see the driver liked to put his foot down a little bit

[@TheUrbaniteof91]

I did indeed - these Volvos were amazing to drive, pity there were so few in London!

[@PixelatedStudios7]

Couldn't tell if this was ZF or Voith 😂

[@BusesinLondon345]

It’s ZF, no Voith bus has this many gears lol

[@KickdownLondon]

ZF screaming like a Voith
