Hoskins Coaches Markham, I may be way out on this one. 40 years ago, I use to travel back and fourth Super Oil Seals in Llanishen with Hoskins Coaches Markham. The no/ plate VCT on this bus rings a bell.
 
I wonder if this bus might draw a bit of interest as FUU 977V Did  John Evans

Super Vega rather than Bella Vega isn't it?

"A Bedford OB, at Newport Transport Depot a couple of years ago" ?

Does anyone know where it is now?
