Didn’t notice any kickdowns, they where more downshifts rather than kickdowns.

Bus 🚌 registration number is KX08 KZN is a good 👍 bus 🚎 made in 2008. It is a double decker bus 🚎 because there are 2 floors. Used in the north Devon area, perhaps 🤔 outer of north Devon area in the south west England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿. One ☝️ reversing light 💡 and one ☝️ fog 🌫 light 💡 at the rear of the bus 🚃. Very good 👍 bus 🚃. Stagecoach South West runs 7 days a week and public holidays except Christmas 🎅 Day, perhaps 🤔 Boxing 🥊 Day and finally New Year’s Day. 😃
