According to a post on Facebook, WN2001 has been on loan to Coventry today. It was on the JLR contract earlier. Apparently it'll be on loan until Friday.

Just about to ask if anyone had seen the loan wolf today.

I'm sure this has been asked before, but is there any differences between the '03 & '53 reg Gemini's. Apart from the '53 regs have tree deflectors (excluding 4475, 4480, 4518) and the screens (when new)

Nope, they're part of the same batch. Differences between 4475-4534 and 4635-4679 & presumably the rest are that the older ones have an extra indicator repeater above the rear wheel, the heater controls inside and to me the newer 4635-79 batch always felt slightly nippier although that's just probably down to individual bus characteristics.

'54 regs seem to howl when accelerating

Most of the older ones I've driven have either had their kickdown removed and thus not been able to scream/rev as much or they've felt ever so slightly less powerful.

Whether that helps you or not, I don't know
