Daimler CVG6
What is your favourite bus of all time?
Daimler's main customers during the 1950s were the municipal operators who found the refined Daimler chassis with its preselector transmission ideal for intense urban work. The postwar CV range offered a choice of Gardner 5LW or 6LW engines, or Daimler's own CD6 unit.West Bromwich Corporation employed a fleet of Daimler CVG6 fitted with a Metro-Cammell Orion H63R body. Surely one of the most attractive liveries in the Midlands, the dark blue lower and light blue upper panels are set off with full lining-out, and cream elsewhere, a style used right up until absorption into the West Midlands PTE.
