Carousel MAN 14.220 MCV STL9
Former airport buses were a popular choice with Carousel. This MCV Stirling bodied MAN 14.220 originated with NCP and initially sat only 31. It is believed to have worked at Birmingham Airport. It is seen in Wycombe Bus Station as STL9 (AF53GCX) in October 2009.
 
Carousel MAN 14.220 MCV 415
A sister vehicle was STL10 (AF53GCY) which by June 2012 had become 415. It is seen negotiating the network of roundabouts in the centre of High Wycombe at the foot of Marlow Hill on town service 36.
 
Carousel MAN 14.220 MCV STL interior
Travelling on one of the MAN/MCV STL buses along the London Road in April 2011 it was odd to note that the bus could cope with more passengers if there was a wheelchair on board - remember to bring a wheelchair next time!
 
Carousel MAN 14.240 MCV Evolution EVO15
Delivered in January, but seen at Heathrow in August 2010, is the next evolution of the Duple Dart body structure which went via Carlyle to Marshall and on to MCV. This appropriately is the Evolution and it thus gained the fleet number EVO15 (AE59AWJ) with Carousel. It was one of a pair, the second being EVO12.
 
Carousel MAN 14.240 MCV Evolution 418
Both MAN 18.240 buses were transferred to Thames Travel but in 2015 EVO12, now 418 (AE59AWH), returned to High Wycombe painted back into red and branded for Route One to Chesham. It is seen back in its home town in Castle Street in September 2015.
