About the brand ❤️
Plaxton is a British coach and bus bodybuilder with origins dating back to 1907 when Frederick William Plaxton founded the company in Scarborough, North Yorkshire. Over more than a century, Plaxton has become one of the UK’s most iconic manufacturers of luxury coach bodies and bus shells, producing a wide range of models for intercity travel, tours and private hire. The business grew through the 20th century and, after several industry mergers and reorganizations, was acquired by Alexander Dennis Limited in 2007 and is now part of the NFI Group, a major global bus manufacturing organization. Plaxton continues to design and build coach bodies at its Scarborough facilities for the UK and export markets, including models such as the Elite and Leopard series. The company leverages its long‑standing engineering heritage to serve modern transport needs while maintaining operations as an active and influential brand in the bus and coach manufacturing sector.
