Did any of the Plaxton 1996 Darts ever make it to Africa ?

From what I heard no, because the drive lines ceased while stood in the depot & could not move.

Thought some survive across First Group. We're knowledgable on West Yorks, we cant do the whole of the UK and Africa

Thought some survive across First Group. We're knowledgable on West Yorks, we cant do the whole of the UK and Africa But these buses are original Rider buses. The 1995/1996 era was big for Rider with many new buses back then just like York's fleet change in 2001.

So, you're expecting one of us to be keeping track of the comings and goings between First subsidaries?

And what i'm saying is that this isn't the best place to be asking, I dont think. You're best off trying other forums of where the buses ended up.

Calm it down please.
Holland, as the latest Buses magazine (which has an article on the Lance) says, some still exist in the South West regions.
How many are ex-Rider is another question.
Maybe try googling for fleetlists of First Grioup companies?
