Scruffy, dirty and unloved.
Commencing April 30th 1989 certain journeys previously part of the Invictaway group of services were revised to form part of a new 'London Express' network of National Express. To this end Duple 'Laser' bodied Leyland Tiger TRCTL11/3R 2182 (A182 MKE) received London Express livery. Re-registered VAY 879 in June 1989 it remained the only vehicle within the Maidstone & District fleet to be so adorned. The livery was shortlived as 2182 reverted to Invictaway livery in May 1990. Looking overdue for that repaint 2182 is seen on the High Street in Maidstone on March 7th 1990.
