there was a bus built at the end of the 80's early 90's .by metro camel ware (mcw) (the people who also built some of the older tube trains)
Metro Cammell Weymann also built the ugly MetroCab. That wasn't great on performance!
BTW Metro Cammell built
all the tube trains except for Central and Waterloo and City Lines. They were absorbed into GEC Alsthom (now Alstom Transport Ltd.)

Highway Code
198: Buses, coaches and trams. Give priority to these vehicles when you can do so safelybut when they're bullying their way out and don't give you a chance to be courteous then sod 'em. It's bad when you notice that the driver isn't even looking as he edges nearer.
A company I used to work for didn't bother going through the insurance for anything less than £3000 as it affected their premium too much. Might be worth finding out if this is the case with the 4x4 before reporting it to your insurance company.
