The AEC Regent V was a front-engined double-decker bus built by the Associated Equipment Company between 1954 and 1969.
[1] It was fitted with an AEC engine or Gardner 6LW engine, coupled to a synchromesh or AEC Monocontrol semi-automatic or fully automatic gearbox.
The chassis was also sold to Ireland, Portugal, South Africa, Iran, Iraq, Isle of Man and Hong Kong.
Kowloon Motor Bus, the sole operator of AEC Regent Vs in Hong Kong, received a total of 210 Regent Vs with extra long wheelbase in 1960s.
This led to the country's front-engined double-decker buses being phased out, as rear or mid-engine designs allowed the passengers to pay fares directly to the driver.
