[UK] 捷達 Lynx

捷達全英國的車隊中沒有幾多部 Lynx, 而現時還留在載客行列
的, 就只有三部駐守於 Darlington 的 Mk.2 富豪引擎版本:



Stagecoach Transit 29627, Leyland Lynx 2 LX2R11V18Z4R, Darlington (20th Aug 2005)

是否此車系停產前的產品？
用富豪邊款引擎？

Of course it's built before production ended in 1993. Who else is going to
build a Lynx after that...?

The engine is THD100, as on the B10M at that time.

Volvo made the new model -- B10B to replace
Lynz before she took over the Olympian series
from Leyland. At that time, B6R and B12 were
also introduced.

I believe is from the same batch..as told from their reg.no.

Owned by a independent, Redby, which is based in Sunderland,
while it was running a metro replacement service.

F-UVN,  G-CEF, K-YVN (and a single J-UKV) where all deliver new to Cleveland Transit.

All have either been sold to ensignbus or moved to driver training unit around the country

As for the K-YVN's, they where super powerfull and many drivers loved them for such great performance.  My favourite was K628YVN as it seemed to have a bit more 'oomph' than the others and the kickdown was stuck!

If you want to hear such a rare beast then look no further than here!

In this clip it is working service 6 from Middlesbrough - Stockton via Portrack Industrial Estate. The driver (a friend of mine who shall be known as 'mark'!) is known for being crazy and when he was allocated this bus and deserted industrial estate roads... I think you guess what happens!
The bus manages to reach full speed in this clip (aprox 135kmh - even tho the speed limit is under half of that!!!!)

Enjoy and Perhaps you will understand the true power and potential of a Leyland Lynx!!
