Crusader Holidays has just bought five new top-of-the-range Mercedes Benz coaches.

It is the first major investment by the three new directors who got behind the wheel after a management buy-out last year.

Managing director Mike Holden said the coaches have been bought to maintain the top class coaching standards and to extend the number of holidays on offer.

The coaches will hit the road next month to help the firm cater for its enlarged programme to Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Spain and the UK.
