The Optare MetroCity is another rare product to be seen in Sutton. This is from the first main production batch (I believe) of thirteen, which went to Quality Line (H R Richmond). It is working Sutton route S1, which has developed from a 2-minibus route in 1993 to an 8-vehicle operation running between Banstead and Mitcham Lavender Fields vua Sutton and St Helier.
This MCV bodied hybrid Volvo B5LH was new to Tower Transit in 2017. Tower was subsequently purchased by RATPDev. VMH45350 sweeps round the Hyde Park Corner roundabout/gyratory.

Seen on Praed Street, Paddington on Route 23 to Hammersmith Bus Station
About half-way between Pollards Hill and Coulsdon South on route 463, this Wrightbus StreetLite WF (wheels forward of the doorway) is seen in Wallington on 16 July 2019. Much of the remaining section is "hail and ride" through suburbia. The bus was new in January 2015 to London General as WS45 but following the loss of a tender a number of similar buses went off-lease. Quality Line has eleven of them for the 463 which has a 20-minute frequency.

Bournemouth Lansdowne 13 March 2017. New in 2005, this VDL SB120/Wrightbus Cadet was near the end of its working life when seen here.
This 2008 Optare Versa with "select" registration carries blue route branding for Bournemouth route 2. Optare products were acquired while the company was in the Transdev organisation, but has since become part of RATP-DEV.
Bournemouth Transport disposed of its 2009 Optare Tempo buses before the end of 2019. On 22 June 2018, bus 8 was seen on Old Churstchurch Road, no doubt working route 5 for which it is branded, but the camera has not captured to orange dot display. Bournemouth have replaced many of their Optare buses with slightly newer second-hand mid-life Alexander Dennis E20Ds.
VH45113 is one of a number of bases to carry promotion for off-peak fares on TfL services. It is seen entering Trafalgar Square on rout e 139 on 5 November 2019. The bus is a Volvo B5LH hybrid bus with Wrightbus bodywork.
Compagnie de Transport du Lac du Bourget operates buses around the lake, France's largest, with Aix-les-Bains the main town.

2014 Wrightbus StreetLite 869 was headed for Castlepoint shopping centre when seen on 22 June 2018. At this time the company was owned by RATP-DEV but it has since been bought out by its management.
TfL buses have taken to advertising liveries "big time" after a period when everything was red and black. "Spotify" is advertised on Turnham Green's Borismaster LT136 on London Road, Southwark as it reaches the end of its journey at the next stop.
With a background of London suburban shops, DE20006 heads east towards Arnos Grove. This is a useful route which links two branches of the Northern Line and the Piccadilly line with the leafy areas of Totteridge Common. This Alexander Dennis Enviro 200 was new in September 2008 to London United as DE6. It seems to have gained a replacement side panel and thus lacks a TfL roundel.
