...and being towed on a flatbed.

Now imagine that happening just as the admin of this site happened to be passing by. What are the odds hey?

Better than you might think!

Is that an Ampera behind it cadging a sneaky tow?

 

[Paul]

Looks like it actually?! Bizarre.

 

[misterbleepy]

so how big's the motor in one of those buses? Big enough to make a sporty Leaf/iMiEV/i3/Zoe?

A bit OT but nice to see CMG still going. They are a strong memory of my old life in Northampton. Bummer about the bus though.

I think it's a Zafira Tourer. Not 100% though.

I am with you on that Flipper

With the scale of the bus and the vehicle behind it does look a bit chunky now you mention it.

Me too. I used to commute from N'pton to MK on the M1 and they were a regular sight as well as in the town.

I was once on an ancient trolley bus in St Petersburg when it broke down in the middle of a major junction.

A policeman came onto the bus and said something in Russian. All the men on the bus got off and pushed it into the side of the road. Disconnected from the overheads and all traffic resumes. You can't do that with a tram!

Didn't wait around for the recovery vehicle.
