Back in the sixties Southampton City Transport boasted a big fleet of AEC Regent V and Guy Arab buses, like this one. Guy Arab III 66 (LOW212) has Park Royal bodywork of similar vintage to the London RT, and similarities will be apparent.

With an Arab in the background, here is one of Southampton's rear loading Regent V buses.

A small number of Leyland Titan PD2A buses were also in the fleet at one time - this one is seen arriving at Hillingdon for Showbus 79.

  |
Seen on the 1979 SHOWBUS Road Run at Langley is this AEC Regent V.
|
  |
Accompanying the PD2A was one of Southampton's long standing open top Arabs which are still around, but not quite as active as they were in the late seventies. The vehicle is decorated for Southampton City Transport's centennial celebrations.
