Leased or owned I would guess a big financial hole, sure there must be a time contract if leased

Saw the 021 being operated by Ridleys last night in Birmingham, with the 023 being operated by Lucketts Whippets.

EDIT: modified as I got the company wrong.

West Midlands based ASA Travel have acquired a new Yutong GT12 (AA24ASA) today, in full Flixbus spec, bar branding. No plans to actually join the Flixbus network though.

Could it be from a cancelled order maybe, like how Johnsons brought the Metrodeckers from Optare that Reading cancelled?

They did have plans to join Flixbus but pulled out, and decided to keep the Coach.
