[edit] Single decker
The single-deck version of the body was built on DAF SB220 and Alexander Dennis Dart chassis. This body is called the Myllennium regardless of the chassis. The body was replaced by the Esteem.
[edit] Hyview
This body is used to re-body older chassis such as the Leyland Tiger (which Strathtay has done). It is just like the Myllennium single-decker but for high-floor buses. It cannot be ordered with any new, low floor chassis.
[edit] Double decker
The double-deck version of the Myllennium was built on a Volvo B7TL, DAF/VDL DB250 or Alexander Dennis Trident 2 chassis. The body could be built as covered, open-top or convertible open-top. It is the only convertible double-decker body available in the UK. The body was replaced by the Olympus and the Visionaire (open top).
