Absoloute brilliant buses and much better than the plastic rubbish on the road today

Liverpool Street

Was any of ADL future products there? Or am I thinking of the Bus & Coach expo?

Bus & Coach Live on 2/3 October which should reveal all the new Euro 6 offerings

The dart and the maltese bus along with the oxford hybrid were the best rides in my opinion. Routemasters are better in London, bristol/ecw's Im not a fan of, prefer fleetlines to ailsas but prefer metrobuses to either of them. The GM metrobus was good as well. Nice to see diamond there though as a late entry

Several 63 plates there including an ADL E400 and some E200s but nothing from the future, yes I think you're thinking of the Expo.
