Default Minibus or Minicoach

Hello...............
Myself Rozy from U.K. I am new here. I am going to discuss about minibus or minicoach. Minibus or Minicoach is a passenger carrying motor vehicle that is designed to carry more people than a minivan, but fewer people than a full-size bus. Minibuses have a seating capacity of between 8 and 30 seats. Larger minibuses may be called minibuses or light buses. Minibuses are typically front-engined step entrance vehicles, although low floor minibuses do exist. Minibuses are used for a variety of reasons. In a public transport role, they can be used as fixed route transit buses, airport buses, flexible demand responsive transport vehicles, share taxis or large taxicabs. Accessible minibuses can also be used for para transit type services, by local authorities, transit operators, hospitals or charities.

Thanks.

what is it your wanting to discuss??

i run a fleet of coaches / minibuses combined.
is it info your requiring?

also the refrence from minibus to minicoach is really determined from the spec inside,
i have a TRANSIT MINIBUS, basically 16 seats no boot, std upright seats no luxurys etc
i then also have a minicoach in the form of a 16 seater extended body mercades sprinter, with boot, reclining seats, coffie machine, dvd player etc.

as i also have 49 seater bus and 6 exec 49 seater coaches,
the word bus or coach as i said is determined from the level of comfort for the passengers
