Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

Willowbrook Ltd, Derby Road, Loughborough, Leics. , No fewer than eight Willowbrook models are at the Show — all of them described as brand new. Of the four models on this stand, three are luxury versions of the 002 model announced today and described elsewhere in this issue. The fourth vehicle also new today and described elsewhere, is the 007 integral body using Mercedes' 0.302 running gear. Initially this vehicle is to be offered only to Continental operators in left-hand-drive form and one of the most interesting facets of the Willowbrook-Mercedes deal is that Mercedes dealers throughout the Continent are to handle it.

The 002 models -basically more luxurious versions of the Expressway body — are on Bedford YRT, Ford R1014 and AEC 10m chassis. The Expressway name has nosh been dropped -a vehicle bearing it nevei even appeared at the London show.

Willowbrook has four more vehicles outsidE in the demonstration park. Two are version: of the company's revamped service but (described in CM, August 18) on YRT ant R1014 chassis and two are further 00:e. models, on R1014 and Seddon urn chassis Willowbrook claims this year's Show as beinc the "Willowbrook show". In terms of volumi of new models on view it might be right.
