So, single deck, R reg, local vehicles, not volvos, scanias, MANs, mercs and not dennis darts either...

I mean they could be Optare Solos ex NX  :o


Nope. When I say local, I mean local!

I'm struggling... I can't really think of any common chassis makers I've missed out that were building back in 1998! As for it being local...well that makes it even harder.

Unless it is the old R reg ie ......R

Well there is Dennis (but not Darts) and Optare

Or DAF's & VIP is the most local to TGB.


They've actually come from an even closer source than VIP

DTS ALX200s?

Plenty big enough for the 22 if they're desperate.

And @Tony-were Dennis building any single decks not darts back in 1998? Lances for export possibly...

No! They're to be used where required, mainly to transport drivers to and from the city centre to save money on nBus/metro tickets.

All I know is someone specifically requested the open topper.


By the way, which bus spotter just phoned in asking about taxi services?
