Any idea who the bus was for ... not convinced it is a London example?

No idea who it was going to but was on its way to be delivered the person said it looks like a London type wonder who it was going to if it's coming to London It won't be a London example - London examples's don't have glass pillars at the front whilst the rear of the nearside has some uncommon looking vents that aren't on London B5LH's or Streetdecks - in fact, I don't think I've seen them on non London examples either.

It's like something that Scotland would have or Lothian?

Looks like one less Streetdeck for the 34 now

Also orders for 200 buses of which 150 are for KMB www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/business/uk-world/wrightbus-lands-orders-from-hong-kong-for-200-buses-37389325.htmlSays a lot for Wrightbus quality control if it had broken down on a delivery run, but Hinckley seems a odd route to Southampton Docks so wonder if it was going somewhere else, especially as it appears to be without logos

Looks like it wasn't chained onto the recovery truck properly, the driver will have some explaining to do.

No idea who it was going to but was on its way to be delivered the person said it looks like a London type wonder who it was going to if it's coming to London As others have said, it's for HK. But the best way to tell whether a bus is for HK or anywhere else in Asia, is by looking at the mirrors. Most Asian spec buses tend to have smaller mirrors, in comparison to typical UK spec buses.

I just saw in some other photos that the Streetdeck didn't even have the rear window installed yet, not to mention the a/c unit and seats...so I don't think it's going to Southampton.
