I thought this might be an interesting thread.
What modern buses are there that have been scrapped after just a few years or even a few months in service? Here's some I can think of:
National Express West Midlands Dennis Trident 4336 (BX 02 AUK) was the first Trident in the NXWM fleet to be destroyed by a fire. It burst into flames on the A45 in April 2011 whilst working the 900 from Coventry to Birmingham.
Western Greyhound Enviro 400s 401 (WK 58 EAA) and 402 (WK 58 EAC) were both destroyed in the Summercourt Fire of May 2013.
Arriva London ALX400 DLA284 (Y 484 UGC) was destroyed by fire in Tottenham during the August 2011 London riots (picture here of the damage).
Any other modern buses destroyed?
