Don't apologise if you wish to be 'picky and all that'. It is important that we get things right.

It was my understanding that whilst the vehicle was originally B20D that it was subject to a refit of its luggage racks in Sept 2009 whilst with Dawsonrentals when undertaking a contract loan to Airlinks Airport Services and as a result became B17D.

I was also in the belief that whilst Transbus International PLC took over the individual companies of Dennis, Plaxton and others in 2001 it took time before vehicles built were rebranded to the new name Transbus. One of my sources of data is 'Bus Lists on the Web' and this indicated that KU02YTW was listed with them as a 'Dennis' with 'Plaxton' body. I have subsequently checked on the DVLA vehicle enquiry website and the vehicle is registered as a 'Dennis'.

Thank you for being 'picky' - can you please tell me where you obtained your information which appears to indicate that my sources are incorrect.
