Merc 0405N bodywork

Hi all
Apologies in advance if this has already been discussed...I gather the earliest 0405N buses 1515-22? were bodied by UVG, they look the same as the rest to me, but are there any subtle differences?
Cheers Craig

Their bodies were completed by UVG in the UK. I don't think there will be any visual differences, only build quality etc

UVG were supposed to finish moff the entire first batch, but went bust after doing the first few, Mercedes then did the finishing off themselves at tankersley

Don't forget 1743 which was also bodied by UVG and initially used as a demonstrator/maintenance float. Its body number (if it had one) doesn't seem to be recorded anywhere.
