It’s not listed in the
programme of the event, but it took part in the Rally in 1998, when the
programme had this note about the vehicle:
Leyland PD2/11 Charles H Roe 1955
UUA 207
Entered by Robert Murray, Leeds
New to Leeds Corporation
Transport this is a very rare model of which only 20 were built, all 20 being
supplied to Leeds, fitted with semi-automatic pneumocyclic transmission and air
brakes. Bought for preservation in 1982 from a gliding club who were about to
convert it to a towing winch. Now restored to mid 60's livery with period
adverts.
