In 1983 we bought two new coaches from Belgium which Graham insisted have very special seats. However, he was ill-advised on the amount of seats that would fit into them with comfort! By the time of delivery, bookings had been taken to the full capacity and they were operated with minimal leg room, BUT NOT FOR LONG!! Two rows of seats were removed creating the better leg room desired.

1984 saw the introduction of our first Neoplan Cityliner coach with many comforts and safety systems, not standard on any other vehicle. Since then, we have continued to operate Neoplan coaches and have gained an excellent product knowledge over many years.

Though we were very biased towards Mercedes/Neoplan we have always kept an open mind and follow the best of other manufacturers products. Hence we purchased two Bova's. Their stay at Harris Coaches was very short lived as we felt they did not offer the high standard of Neoplan/Mercedes.

Graham passed away in 1991, so the running the company was down to Jon and Steve and loyal staff and drivers.

Comfort and safety is still forefront, the present fleet has reduced seating to ensure plenty of leg room and all of the maintenance is done in-house to ensure your safety. Over the years we have witnessed the demise of many operators, but here at Harris Coaches, we have pulled though difficult times, and therefore we must be doing something right!!
