Irish operator Mangan Tours has taken delivery of a new Plaxton Panther coach from Alexander Dennis.

The coach, built on a Volvo B8R chassis, has 53 seats and is fitted with an executive-class interior that includes air-conditioning as well as a servery and a toilet mounted at the continental offside emergency exit.

It has gone into service as part of the Mangan Tours luxury touring fleet. The family business delivers scheduled nationwide services as well as providing coach transport for holidays across Ireland, the UK and Europe.

Mangan Tours owner Joseph Mangan said: “This new coach is great for our customers and will be an excellent addition to our fleet.

“We’re continuing to invest in the future of our business and I’m delighted to take delivery of this high-quality, high-spec vehicle.”

ADL regional sales manager for Ireland, Lee Gibson, added: “It’s been a pleasure working with Joseph and the team at Mangan Tours for the first time and look forward to a long-lasting relationship into the future.”
