Seems there's still little interest in one of the Solos and the Renowns. Looks like some operators are interested in H87 DVM either as a school bus or for spares.

That one got a few last minute bids, possibly a couple of operators both decided they wanted it and were bidding against each other.

The ex Brighton & Hove examples are very tidy so not surprised. Some were DDA converted, not sure which ones mind. The ex GNE examples, R848 PRG went to Thornton Brothers for DDA mods whilst R838/9 PRG didn't as it happens as were also not in fleet livery.
Would be interesting to know if DDA mod examples were listed as such? Even some of the older Solos were treated such as T314 UOX.

Already posted further up the thread but they can't start them as they haven't received approval from the TC to run the services.
