Maynes Legacy
Published: 03/03/23
Welcome to our Legacy.
Today, the distinctive coaches of Maynes can be seen hard at work, both in the United Kingdom and abroad, many miles beyond their home base here in Buckie. The company beginnings however were considerably more localised and at a somewhat slower pace.
The coach operating business was established by James Mayne in 1947 following two years’ operating a local taxi, car and limousine hire business. For prestige occasions the fleet included a Rolls Royce. Having assessed there was sufficient local demand to justify expanding into the coach business, the first Maynes coach was purchased in 1947.
Maynes Legacy has been formed, to offer an unrivalled experience to our clients but to pay homage and respect to those that have gone before us and laid a road our company now follows, we are extremely proud of our history as a fifth generation family company, the gratitude to our previous generations plays a huge part to what drives us forward each day.
In January 2023 we launched ‘Maynes Legacy’, a bespoke Obsidian Black fleet of smaller sized vehicles and several new additions to the fleet.
The Legacy fleet will have two new Irizar I6 10.8m 35 seat coaches complete with 3 tables & full facilities and also two new Mercedes V Class 7 seat MPV’s coming to join us along with our existing 9 and 16 seat VIP coaches and selection of new black luxury Mercedes cars that we already have also added to the fleet.
Scheduled to arrive in spring 2023 the Legacy fleet will expand to include two new 11 seat Mercedes VIP coaches arriving and a new 16 seat VIP midi coach.
We aim to provide the best chauffeur driven luxury with world class vehicles and exceptional standards of comfort and service.

Maynes, have set a standard which is highly regarded by many within the coach industry and it is these award winning standards that reflect the hard work and dedication of all who have been involved in the company since it began over 76 years ago.
This is a legacy that our family have continued to deliver over generations and we are proud to share it with you today.
The coaches may have changed, however the standards have not.
