The Oxford east-west Park & Ride service 12 passes beneath the low bridge at Oxford Station. Originally it was operated by single deck Leyland Nationals and Leyland Lynxes. When an increase in capacity was required it proved difficult to source low height double deckers so it was decided to use articulated buses.  The first was this Volvo B10LA but subsequent deliveries have been from Scania and Mercedes. This bus now carries generic Park & Ride branding and is used as an operational spare for all three Park & Ride services.
The model is an extensive rebuild of two EFE diecasts.
