I used https://www.mycarcheck.com/ which finds all registrations without needing any other details and it returned nothing

After a quick check on the DVLA H114 ABV is Taxed so must be still around

H114ABV now at Dews Coaches not very long ago, look at Flickr website https://www.flickr.com/photos/45726467@N02/16479427546/in/photolist-r7enF9-qcvQbY-pb1BXj-81RZoh-dpKFSN-cmDgh1-oKNgHV-qGTVU8-iu9hXc-qJYwYo-7Fr3WB-pqk9Ry-pqk9R3-7ZwwqC-9zxzE4-9zxzEc-9xHv2w-a7e4WS-9xEwkk-9xExFK-9xHvTw-9xHvRS-9xHuDu-9zxzEe

Has it been reregistered with new plates?

One of the Ikarus Polaris' was seen being towed westbound on the M62 today just east of the Birchwood junction, couldn't ID it as I was driving in the opposite direction.

You are correct it was indeed re-registered. H115 ABV was re-registered VIL 4037 either by or prior to being acquired by Eurotaxis. It carried "Focus" branding and was also fitted with smaller circular headlamps in place its original rectangular headlamps. It's been untaxed since May 2014 so it's quite possible that it's been scrapped unfortunately

Hopefully the displaced DLPs are transferred to Green Lane for deployment on the 26/27 circulars where I think they'd be very useful and are much needed - particularly during peak periods and also on matchdays as well. They could potentially be deployed on the 14 until the new deckers are delivered for that route
If my memory serves me correctly the PVR for the 26/27 circulars is around 12 or 13 vehicles so there'd be enough DLPs to cover the full allocation - it would also be enough to cover the 14 too. Either way I'm looking forward to seeing where the displaced DLPs end up
