this is fantastic to watch!!!
nice gearchanging sir. keep it up
Love it! That little whistle when changing gear has just taken me back 30+ years!
Bet that's a lovely vehicle to drive as well.
Thank you.
They seemed such a powerful coach loved roar and gear change of them takes me back 1986
It's a lovely sound. Think the output was about 175bhp and 550lb-ft.....can anyone clarify this at all please ??
@@andypreston1524 - yes Andy it was either 168bhp at 2,000rpm or 175bhp at 2,200rpm. The torque at both outputs was 475 lb/ft at 1,300rpm. Hope this helps
17:14 into 2nd - the lost motion knock!!!
I miss driving buses like these, stuck with modern ADL rubbish now!
Think yourself lucky we only have 8 ADLs most of our fleet is now Streetdecks
@@woollen797 surely they can’t be worse? An E200MMC is a miserable, slow, bucket of s***!
We only have deckers here so not had the misfortune of the E200
well after sorting fuel issues I now have a faster Leopard
Wow loud engine
Hi yes the older buses were quite loud in comparison to modern ones
you sure about that? mind the Leopard has got the option of stopping at junctions facing forward
How utterly modern in your fleet, power steering..You couldn't drive the LH like that LOL
Just let you know that I have up for sale 2 Brand New completely restored gear shifters also with a new gasket kit fitted if anyone is interested.
is that a semi auto gearbox ?
Yes the air version of the semi auto
