Plate checks say Leyland Redline - I've come across this before without understanding what it means, although I don't think it is a formal make (so keep as just Leyland). Is it a reference to Scottish production at Bathgate??

Sounds like it was to colour code which garages seviced which models , perhaps some operators could not read :)

Doesn't seem to me that having a new make Leyland Redline is a good idea - far too difficult to apply consistently.

But ..... when we get independence, Sir Admin will need to give us a Scottish flag and confirmed Redlines can be updated to made in Scotland.

Has anyone seen any discussion about what flag Rest-Of-UK (which apparently is going to be renamed London Province) will use?? Without the Cross of St Andrew (white diagonals on blue) the Union Jack will no longer be valid?

Totally agree , I just consider Redline a marketing name not a make.

I envy you your vote , us English nationalists can't get a vote on anything !
