Details: Some vehicle designs take some getting used to, the latest incarnation of the Renault Master being a good example. With the basic shape of many vans and cars pre-determined (either by aerodynamics or design-sharing arrangements), the challenge for automotive designers is to make their vehicles distinctive. It could be argued that even if a design is thought of as 'ugly', it could be judged as successful if it gets noticed. Anyhow, this is LM61UNY, a new Renault Master van for Metroline. Shortly after its arrival, two of Metroline's four-year old Mercedes Sprinter vans were sold (KR57FUO and KR57FUP). This suggests that one or two more new vans might be expected. Used for engineering support, the van was photographed on Vauxhall Bridge Road at Victoria on 16th January 2012.
