By 2005 route branding had become a little more blatant using strong colours on the whole bus. Optare Solo 28 (YN03NEF) is in route 8 purple livery, alongside VDL SB120/Wright 61 (YG52CMU) in the new orange livery for route 5. Both buses display the appropriate destination blinds at SHOWBUS 2005.

The final 2005 pose shows the "SHOWBUS 2005" destinations. Both buses were recent secondhand purchases. The Solo came from Weaverway where it had carried Newbury & District fleetnames and the Wright bus, appropriately from Wrights of Millport.

Duxford's DC3 Dakota made a nice backdrop to the collection of MK Metro and Optare products at Showbus in 2005. A standard livery MK Metro Solo can be seen alongside an unexpected entry, a Solo in North Beds livery.
