That was one of the two renowns in the 491's that I didn't ride. It's a shame that there is berely any with GNE now, the renowns are one of my favourites (except for 4900).

Aye, I'm the same.


Was one of the better ones, Had a quite loud ZF gearbox in it and had barely been touched inside since new.
7090 now for sale with Proctors Coaches:

It's been parked up in the same place for a while now.

The door has been replaced by a roller shutter door.

Guessing it is an ex-GNE vehicle

I have it on good authority that it is going to be a bar and will be an option for those not wanting to go in to the pub during the busy summer months.
Sold to ensign in October 2015, it looks like 3879 is not having a future anymore...
