New to New World First Bus in 1999, this Plaxton Pointer 2 bodied Dennis Dart SLF was returned to the UK for use initially by First Potteries as their 301. It got passed to First Devon & Corwall before joining First Hampshire and Dorset, by then numbered 40956. They bounced it on to First Berkshire.

The bus was purchased for preservation by keen Hong Kong bus fan David Rogers and is pictured at the Bristol Rally in Brislington in July 2016 back as New World First Bus 2066 (HY8116) though sporting its UK registration S344SUX.
