The model - A Collector's Model "members only" release, issued in late August 2001, again featuring the incorrect casting, the destination blind/route number should not be split! Although being advertised as a 'members only' model, quantities have appeared in both Hong Kong and the UK.

The bus - After successful trials with 4 prototype Dennis Jubilants, KMB placed orders for a further 360 examples, these being delivered between May 1979 and May 1982. The first batches carried bodywork by Walter Alexander, whilst the final batch of 150 were bodied by Duple/Metsec, in the form of ckd kits.
