A little celebration tinged with sadness today as we wave farewell to one of our favourite drivers. Since retiring from full-time coach work with Dudley’s of Inkberrow a few years ago, Judy has been sharing her time between local operators and will today be spending a little time and final hurrah with each of us as she prepares to enjoy some well earned rest. A much loved friend and face in the industry, everyone here at Henshaw’s wishes her the very best for the future. Don’t be a stranger Aunty Jude. The kettle’s always on for you.

Today we were delighted to hand over this stunning Irizar Integral i4 13.6m coach to Henshaw's Executive Travel Ltd of Moreton in Marsh in the Cotswolds.

Fitted with 80 seats, front TV monitor with DVD and radio/CD, this versatile coach will surely attract attention on the rural roads of Gloucestershire and beyond.

The i4 is driven by a DAF MX11 300kw engine, outputting 408bhp through the smoothly efficient ZF Ecolife 6 speed automatic gearbox. The rear steer axle ensures full manoeuvrability into those tighter spaces.

Mixed emotions for Team Henshaw at Bourton on the Hill today. With the arrival of HC71HEN, excluding heritage vehicles our final non Euro6 compliant coach leaves the fleet. T3DLT has been a great workhorse for us over the last couple of years and is popular with drivers but the time has come for it to move on to pastures new.

With 61 passenger seats, Euro6 emissions standard and PSVAR, Plaxton Panther HC71HEN will be a great replacement. Built on a Volvo B8R chassis it builds on the great relationship and support we receive from Plaxton Coach Sales.

Have a great Christmas and look out for it on the road from January!
