Bus & Coach World were an invaluable partner with trent barton & kinch bus during my 25years as Engineering Director & Managing Director with the renowned, East Midlands based, bus operator. Over this time BCW carried out numerous bus refurbishment programmes along with major accident repairs and bus conversions. BCW helped with the forward planning of the work to ensure impact on our service delivery and never let me down with project turn-around times. All of the BCW team are incredibly helpful, and the quality of their work is second to none with pricing was always competitive, whether it be for a one-off vehicle repair, upholstery retrim, full bus repaint, or the mid-life refurbishment of a large batch of buses.
