Ancillary and Other Vehicles
Various vehicles are owned by Southern Vectis for purposes such as transporting staff between locations. A number of vehicles are also used for vehicle maintenance to assist broken down buses. Events such as the Isle of Wight Festival and Bestival have in recent years required an events fleet to be created. Many of these vehicles are older buses no longer used by fellow Go South Coast companies. They are brought over in preparation a number of months before the Isle of Wight Festival and remain over the summer to assist with a number of events requiring additional services.

Famous quotes containing the word vehicles:
“Television programming for children need not be saccharine or insipid in order to give to violence its proper balance in the scheme of things.... But as an endless diet for the sake of excitement and sensation in stories whose plots are vehicles for killing and torture and little more, it is not healthy for young children. Unfamiliar as yet with the full story of human response, they are being misled when they are offered perversion before they have fully learned what is sound.”
—Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)
