Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

• Scania-Bussar managing director Kurt Palmgren says Scania may set up a European base by 1992, either at its Netherlands truck assembly plant or in the UK.

He was speaking last week at the opening of Stuart Johnson's new premises in Worksop. Managing director Stuart Johnson says he already has service and parts agreements for Scania, MCW, Duple, Alexanders and Van Hool, and is negotiating with Plaxtons.

Single and double-deck Scania buses were on show at the opening. The first 10 of 20 Alexander-bodied Scania N113 double-deckers and 10 Plaxton Derwent Scalia K93 CRB60 57-seat single-deckers have been supplied to Johnson, who has already sold one to Kettlewells of Retford.

Johnson's turnover has grown from £750,000 in 1983 to some 217.5 million. The purpose-built £1.2 million centre for new and used buses and coaches has full workshop facilities and room to expand.
