Hills Coaches takes sixth Sunsundegui

In its 50th year of operation, Hills Coaches of Wolverhampton has received delivery of a Volvo B11R Euro6 with Sunsundegui SC7 bodywork. This is the first time the firm has selected a B11R and this is the sixth vehicle with Sunsundegui bodywork the company has taken in the last five years. Features include TV screens, a hot drinks servery, a fridge, a toilet, a Volvo I-Shift transmission, full air conditioning and a reversing camera.

Director of Hills Coaches, Darran Hill, said, ‘We were looking for a 53-seat vehicle to add to our fleet and following positive feedback we’d received from other operators, decided to take a look at the Volvo B11R. In addition to the excellent reports on the operational performance and fuel consumption record of the Euro6 chassis, we particularly liked the look of the Sunsundegui bodywork, so had no hesitation in purchasing the vehicle. Aftersales back up and service is vitally important to all coach operators and at Hills Coaches we are no exception. We have an excellent working relationship with our local Volvo Truck & Bus dealership, Hartshorne in Walsall, where we receive great service and this was another key reason for our choosing Volvo again this time.’
