 Turners was one of the founding members of the UK Flixbus operation with a fleet of four Van Hool EX17H coaches deployed in the dedicated livery. Entering the "Sammy's garage" arrival hall at London's Victoria Coach Station in July 2024 is YJ67CZX. All four Van Hools were acquired secondhand with this one coming from B Kavanagh in Urlingford where it was 172-KK-955. It started life as a demonstrator for the Arriva dealerhip, heading to Urlingford in April 2019, but returned to the UK and joined Turners in August 2020. In 2025 First took over the Bristol based Flixbus operations and it appears the Van Hools have left the fleet.

 Turners have had the XHY256 regsiration for some years having acquired it on a Leyland Tiger school bus, unfortunately we have not been able to trace the previous identity of this Irizar i6s coach.

 The fleet has had several doubledeckers over the years from secondhand Bristol VRT buses through Paramount 4000 coaches to the luxury Ayats Horizon. Certainly the VR would have been great for school work, and doubtless the doubledeck coaches did their share of transporting school chldren. In recent years however the MobiExplorer bodied Scania K320IB with 3+2 seating for a total of seventy passengers has fulfilled most of that need. This is YN72ZVM.
