That one and M1342 had 4 speed boxes. Both Metroline. I worked on them M1067 at Potters Bar and M1342 at Harrow Weald. Although it did take a while to get into 4th!

Dont here it change into fourth.

No, it was retrofitted by Metroline in the early 90s when the bus became a trainer and the law changed requiring drivers to pass their test in a vehicle capable of 50mph. There was a fair degree of work involved, the propshaft is shorter and one of the chassis members had to be modified. There's also a small box in the saloon by the rear seat adjacent to the emergency exit to accomodate the larger box. Must have cost them a few quid to convert.

Was 4 speed fitted from new; being a twm engineer know that there were a number of physical differences to accomodate the extra length of the gearbox (On Mark 2's anyway)

...and also Mk2 Metrobus M1442 (A442 UUV)

Can it not be upgraded to euro 4 after that? (without changing the engine)

As I am responsible for the day to day operation of this bus (M1067) I can assure you it does not have, and never has had a Cummins L10 fitted. It has a standard Gardner 6LXB and London spec fuel pump. It sounds nothing like a Cummins!!!
M1067 is unusual however in being an ex-Metroline trainer and has a 4 speed Voith in place of the usual 3 speed. Was with London Northern pre-Metroline as far as I know. New in '84 to Clapham for the 249s then spent time at Holloway and Potters Bar as I recall.

M1084-1105 (B84 WUL etc) were fitted with Cummins L10 units.
