The last double-deckers delivered to Lisbon was a batch of forty Daimler Fleetline buses in 1967-8 which were delivered in kit form and assembled by Utic. The bodywork was built by the Lisbon operator CCFL. When compared with the traditional British half-cab bus the first generation Atlantean and Fleetline buses were a heap of trouble and I wonder if it was unreliability of these vehicles which helped change this once loyal operator's buying policy away from our British products.
