I notice that the 125 bus has a new fleet of buses which look a tiny

designing a New Bus For London, I imagined that it would replace all
of the double-deckers as they became life-expired, but it would seem
not. Is the Borisbus considered a failure? Have they stopped making
them already? Was it only ever going to be used in touristy areas,
and if so, why?

Looks like a pretty bog standard modern bus to me.

Yes, I agree. Doesn't look at all like a Boris bus to me. For good or bad,
Boris buses really do look quite different to other modern buses (and to
old RMs, too).
