RE: Phoenix Coaches - omnicity4659 - 30 May 2015
Phoenix have acquired an ALX400, KV02 URY. It's currently working service 30.
RE: Phoenix Coaches - omnicity4659 - 05 Jun 2015
Some Phoenix vehicles now have "Phoenix Coaches (NE) Ltd" instead of "Readypay Ltd" on the legals.
Also OCZ 8001 is new here, some sort of Mercedes minibus thing.

KV02 URY has Phoenix Coaches (NE) Ltd as the legal owner. Phoenix Coaches (NE) Ltd is 73% owned by Readypay Ltd and 27% by Kenneth Turner of Fairway Mini Coaches Ltd according to Duedil. Readypay trades as Phoenix Taxis and Coaches.
I hope they change the livery of KV02 URY from the current all over white.

It would be nice to see it with Phoenix fleet names on, but only if it's not the hideous ones that they've applied to the Solo SR.
RE: Phoenix Coaches - omnicity4659 - 08 Jun 2015
Vario OCZ8001 is on the 30 today. It is fleet numbered 921.

Bit of news here is that 909 (XUO 354) has been re-registered as A12 PNX, matching the private cherished registration of sister 911 (A14 PNX).

RE: Phoenix Coaches - Dan - 30 Jun 2015
Interesting that brown Mercedes Sprinter LT10NVG(?) is fitted with Wi-Fi!
Unsure if it works, mind, as I am never near it long enough to check. Just noticed the sticker on the rear doors today.
RE: Phoenix Coaches - buss14 - 30 Jun 2015

It's often on the Benton Asda shorts mind.

KX53 SCZ is usually absent from the 30 these days, I've seen more of KV02 URY than anything else!

It's the green Solo that's the unreliable one - KX53SCZ is often on the Asda Byker Shuttle covering for it, hence why KV02URY has been on the 30.

i dont mind KV02 URY i was a lovely ride to linton and back. it did rattle a little but other wise a lovely bus.
phoenix should think about getting another double decker because the 30 does get quite busy at times and they could extent the 30 which i know might not happen.
