The model - this is one of around sixty 1/43 scale buses announced by Hachette back in March 2015, being issued in a 'partwork' range for subscribers - it is number 30 of this series. It is believed the range was available mainly in France. 

The bus still not totally happy with its rear-engined buses, China Motor Bus took delivery of 167 front-engined Leyland Victory Mk2s between 1979 and 1982. These featured Alexander 'CB' bodywork with seating in a 3+2 layout, with the exception of the final batch of 20, which were fitted with Metsec bodies. LV21 was first registered on 3rd September 1980.
