It's hard to really tell, but T218XBV (DLP18) is in preservation, formerly with Arriva London. Some still worked services until being transferred to sightseeing operators in London, though I think some then wound up in Edinburgh as well for sightseeing, not sure.
I wonder if VLW1 (Y581 UGC) will also pass for preservation? Since I believe it's been sent to Staffordshire for work, though significantly cannibalised

There are plenty of these in Hardwicks at the moment still mostly intact. I think engines/gearboxes might have been removed though.
RE: DAF Presidents - NathanR - 13/03/2021 16:32
I believe all of the Presidents/Geminis that were at Birkenhead have all departed now? All that is left is the Plaxton Pointer that is used for towing.
RE: DAF Presidents - Jack - 15/03/2021 12:59
it's a Dart/Paladin rather than a Plaxton Pointer.

The dart wasn't down as a disposal, however is no longer used. I believe there have been a few parties interested in it or preservation.

Correct me if i am Wrong on any of these.
4183 and 4184 have been stripped and are on the back wall at Wythenshawe. 4166 is in the main yard so not scrapped along with 2 others.
RE: DAF Presidents - Y458 KNF - 11/07/2021 14:08
Have any more Presidents departed for scrap since that last update? 4173 & 4180 are still at Rhyl
