 Wycombe's orange Optare Versas were not the only ones in the fleet. Ten new Versa joined the fleet in early 2013 branded for route 10 in Watford. Versa 3422 (KX62JWA) is seen is Watford town centre awaiting service in October that year. |
 |
 On the same day 3416 (KX62JMU) is seen with its wheel chair ramp down and the driver assisting with loading at the town centre main stop. |
|
 Versa 3420 (KX62JUT) is another passing through the town centre to Woodside that day. |
|
 More Versas from an earlier batch were to be found in Harlow in Essex. Bound even further afield for Chelmsford is 2406 (YJ58PFY) route branded for that 59 service seen in Harlow Bus Station in August 2012. |
|
 Entering Wycombe High Street in May 2023 was one of several Optare Versas transferred to the town to modernise the fleet. They were not best suited to the hilly terrain and poor mechanical back up, it was not long before several were sounding quite unhealthy. This is 2979 (YJ09MKV) still in original livery when new in Shrewsbury, others arrived in the new bright blue colours.
