Vintage Closed-Top Double-Decker Buses For Hire

The standard Southdown double-deck bus of the 1960s were Leyland Titan PD3s with bodywork by Northern Counties of Wigan and 285 such vehicles were constructed between 1958 and 1967.

Many were subsequently sold abroad and most since broken up. Fortunately, we were able to rescue and fully restore both open and closed-top examples of these wonderful buses.

The slightly older of our two closed-top buses was built in 1964 to a style evocative of late 1950s design. On the other hand, our other bus was built only 3 years later in 1967, fully embraced the swinging sixties by sporting state of the art large 'Panoramic' side windows and a special curved-glass front to the top deck.

Whilst some external details differ, the basic internal layout and design is the same. With 69 seats, (39 upper deck & 30 lower deck), these fine vehicles are a firm favourite with larger wedding parties or groups and ideal for a trip to the races, corporate entertainment or TV and film production.

Available for hire each summer season between the beginning of April and late Autumn, these buses are real gems, being two of the few surviving examples of this type still available for hire.

All of our vehicles are painstakingly restored to as-built condition. So most modifications will not be possible.
