In his forecasts, he has obviously worked in the extra revenue from freight and offering something different to a normal service with the storage facilities.

Questionaires are back in, timetables set up and now he is off to get some funding!
It seems that Spirit Buses still have quite a few hoops to jump through. First, they need financial backing; this means that they can prove to the Traffic Commissioners that they are of good financial standing. Next, they'll need an operating centre and suitable vehicle maintenance arrangements; next, they need a transport manager with the relevant Certificate of Professional Competence. Then they can apply to the Traffic Commissioner for the grant of an operating licence. If granted, they can then register services with eight weeks' notice. If they're planning to start operating this summer, they'll need to get their skates on...
Buying or leasing the buses is the easy bit!
The last update was in Jan and he states he plans to be up and running before the summer http://www.spiritbuses.co.uk/news.html
Forgot to mention, been a update on Spirit Buses, and it's looking quite promising despite what we all thought. http://www.spiritbuses.co.uk/news.html

Well well well - it looks like he's serious after all.
Getting this far in such a short time is quite an achievement considering it seemed to be an ambitious dream just under a year ago.
I hope he get to see his project through to completion. I genuinely wish him all the luck in the world.
VOSA web site is indicating that Spirit Buses Ltd has been granted an operators' licence in the last few days. So perhaps we should be keeping an eye out for some service registrations and vehicle acquisitions. Earliest their services might start would be mid to late August, though, I suspect; but having missed the bulk of the summer, might they be better advised to hang fire until the spring?
