The Rise and Fall of Leyland Trucks and Buses

Greetings! :D While most people think of the Morris Marina and Austin Allegro when discussing British Leyland, an often forgotten part of this gigantic firm was its trucks and buses division, which long predated the part-nationalised conglomerate, and had its history rooted over half-a-century earlier to a time when the Leyland Motors company was one of the most successful bus and lorry builders in the world. However, while Leyland Trucks & Buses proved to be one of the more popular aspects of the wider British Leyland group, external politics with regard to the bus market in general, together with the revenues from bus and truck sales being dispersed across the wider industry, meant its survival was not guaranteed, and by the end of the 1980s, this once legendary brand in the motoring world had almost disappeared completely.
