Welcome to the Vintage Tours blog! This blog is generally aimed at the 'enthusiasts' interested in what's going on with our coaches, and photographs and reports of continental tours. If you are looking for details of our tours, please visit our main site, vintage-tours.co.uk
About Vintage Tours
Vintage Tours was originally founded by John Woodhams in 1987 to operate occasional tours with restored vintage motor coaches, and although this still forms part of the operation, many of our tours are now rail based continental touring holidays. The programme is deliberately small, so that virtually all tours are personally escorted. The vintage coaches are still used, and apart from our own tours, are also available for hire for weddings and other special occasions.
JT and CDL met for the first time in about 35 years on Friday....the last time they met was on the London to Brighton Run in the 1970s. CDL is awaiting work to commence on her, and JT needed her 6-weekly survey.
CDL was on the road for the first time in 11 months today. She is taking CCF's spot in Seaview Service's workshop for work to be carried out by the highly skilled Dennis Bunce. Work includes repair to the front bumpers, construction of new lifeguards and a general touch up of paint.
