Both models are intended to appeal to those wishing to apply their own liveries or vehicle & destination transfers. The third model was the first of a planned series of models to be produced in co-operation with the Stagecoach Group & Northcord Models, these will be fully assembled & decorated items intended for model collectors. The first product, the Britbus Olympain kit was released in December 2021, this and all the othert models are exclusively available from the Model Buses Collection online store or via Brian Collins Enterprises in the Republic of Ireland.
