I found this RTL survivor parked in Matraville on Christmas eve. There was a car parked in front so only a back shot and those fantastic Leyland wheel hubs.
I wonder if it is still being used to take revellers about?

They must have picked it up for a song. Amazing what people will live in. It needs the Bustech treatment.

Re: Britstop Bus Pops Up Again.
It is still owned by the guy that ran Britstop, the people in the house where it is in this pic have hired it for a family member to stay in during a visit as its cheaper than a hotel.
Try contacting the owner and phone, email plus website all no longer work.
He has had good offers for it before but currently wont sell.

Re: Britstop Bus Pops Up Again.
Well that's a relief. I've met the owner on a couple occasions and he remembered me as the guy who '"had an interest in his bus".
