Model Buses Creations - Update 3

We are delighted to share the news that after negotiations and discussions, Model Buses Creations now have a license with Wrightbus to produce models of the Wright Streetdeck.

I am currently in the process of working with our operator partners to produce a series of Streetdeck models for 2026 and 2027. This will be a mix of single and dual door models, with the dual door vehicles being London operators, these models will be fully licensed by Transport for London.

It's been a while since this tooling has seen service, so we want to bring this back with a series of popular models from around the UK. Expect to see some popular liveries from around the UK. These will be exclusively sold via MBC and a select number of MBC stockists.

There has been a lot of working going on behind the scenes to make this happen and I would like to thank those who have supported MBC with this process. Thank You to the team at Wrightbus for issuing this license to MBC. We will be extending the range of Wrightbus vehicles as we develop this exciting partnership.

Over the next couple of weeks and months I can share more news on these projects.

Please keep watching the MBC social media and website for more details

Many Thanks
Iwan Jones
MBC Production Manager
