The First production examples entered service in the early 1970's, and soon became the standard single deck bus for almost all the National Bus Company fleets. The modular design of the National allowed for easy modification of the vehicle spec, allowing various lengths and door options to be produced. The original Leyland National design was updated during the early 1980's resulting in the National mark II. The earliest production vehicles had a large roof mounted air conditioning pod which was soon replaced by a more compact version. A cheaper version of the original design was also produced which omitted the expensive roof air conditioning pod, this was known as the Series B. THE EFE MODELS The short mark I National models are all based on a 10.3 metre long bus. The first models were produced as single door versions with the first model appearing in late 1992. The first dual door version followed a year later. 16605DR is a long dual door version of the mark I National which was issued in this series by mistake. It should have been in the 150xx series. 16702DR was issued in the series for models with long roof pods but has the shorter pod and should therefore have really been in the 166xx series.
