New Aston Martin Routemaster Bus for London?


News today of the two finalists for the new routemaster bus which may well be on the road by 2011!!

As an iconic symbol of London we think either design would be a fab replacement for the tired, old classic Routemaster. But for us the winner is the The Aston Martin/Foster bus.
The design envisages a highly-manoeuvrable, zero-emissions vehicle, with drive-by-wire, solar panels built into a glass roof, a vehicle accessible for all, with warm lighting and wooden floors....and we hope no space for graffiti or chewing gum on the seats either!

The Aston Martin design for me too - this design takes all the good elements of form from the original and simplifies them to make a stylish, iconic proposal...
