I'm guessing more Enviro 400's ;)

Maybe a few more B7RLEs or possibly E200, can't see a new bus type NX seem loyal to wright and ADL

I doubt we'll see any more Scanias, but I'm sure Tony himself has already stated that there is nothing on order yet.

There's still plenty of the year left, so anything could happen...
My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath

It's all a bit surprising, but perhaps it's due to Euro 6. Originally operators were sticking to cheaper and less complicated Euro 5 vehicles, but it now seems that Euro 6 buses will be lighter and have lower fuel consumption, so perhaps NXWM is waiting till they come onto the market - vehicles like the B5TL.

I have heard that a manufacturer for this years orders has been chosen, do not know if the physical order has been placed, but I suspect it has now

Hope it's Wright; at least for any double deckers. Not keen on the Wright Eclipse as I feel the 2011 onwards model is worse than the 56 reg ones. Would like to see more Scanias though.

I take it you're not too keen on the E400's then Lynx1103?

No, I prefer Wright. I'm bored of E400's now, there's nearly 200 of them.
