Can anybody shed any light on a lost friend? The erstwhile 0276 was last seen with the Buckley Belles Dance Troupe, does anybody know if this example still resides with the group, even if immobile?

I believe it is still with them. It is taxed until 01/02/2020 and MOT valid until 23/05/2020.
Last photo of it uploaded was taken in July 2019, looking very scruffy!

Lost track of a few of these now. No idea where 293,294,297 are. 271/277/305/6/7/8 are still at South Glos (now Stagecoach west) and expected to be sold in the new year. I dont think 294 went through with the sale, it seems to have gone off radar. Also heard rumour there has been a lot of interest in them and that a number have been 'reserved' for preservation.
275,288,291,299,301,302 are still with Presidential in Bootle, however 291 is now a spares donor. 288 and 299 are now both in MTL livery with Wirral Peninsula branding, the rest in plain white.
16 scrapped, 20 presumed in existance, including 291 which i'd imagine will soon bring the number of scrappers up to 17.

Thanks for that L401, much appreciated.
It would be great to get the list fully updated. I see 281, 287 are now noted down as scrapped, any recollection as to their final owner? From memory, they were subsequently sold on out of Arriva ownership for further use.

Sorry my mistake, I have just made that list on the spot now using flickr and DVLA, i'll update the list as 287 does exist so I will edit previous post accordingly! 281 was scrapped in 2011.

294 was on ebay a few months ago with no seats so had left SGBC a while ago.
