Hi
I’m new to this forum, so hello and thanks for the good reading so far.

I’m hoping someone out there can help me in my search. I have just bought an Atkinson Borderer, which was bought in 1972 brand new by a company called AA Turner Ltd of Bordesley Green Birmingham. Has anybod ever heard of this company, was it a haulage company or a factory or■■?

I would quite like to put it back into its original colours if possible.

Thanks in advance.

Sorry, I can’t find a photo with its original owners, but here is one that I was given a while ago. Apologies to the photographer, as I’ve no idea who took it. Apparently, it was taken in Birmingham in 1989.

Hi thanks for the picture. That was taken when it was with its second owner Charles a Taylor of Haymills birmingham, he aquired the vehicle in 1985. I believe he was something to do with fairs etc. When he died the vehicle was sold in 2002 to its third owner and I’m the fourth.
