Politics often played a part in decision making at Municipal Bus Undertakings. Local politicians were instinctively inclined to favour local industries that provided jobs and prosperity for local people. It was no surprise, therefore, that Coventry Corporation (and later Coventry City Transport) was fiercely loyal to the locally built Daimler buses, throughout its existence. It famously created a local furore when, in 1964, its first rear-engined double deckers emerged as Leyland Atlanteans. It mattered not a jot that they were the PDR1/2 model, incorporating Daimler transmission parts under licence.
