The Leyland-DAB artic found customers in Denmark, and was the first modern style articulated bus in the United Kingdom, albeit with limited repeat orders.

Four of these buses saw extended trials in the United Kingdom with the South Yorkshire Passenger Transport Executive, (SYPTE) and were demonstrated with other UK operators, with seven purchased by British Airways.

[3][4][5] Later deliveries from 1985 employed all Leyland components again, but with DAB designed bodies.

[5][7] In 1980, Australian operator Darwin Bus Service had a Leyland-DAB bodied by Pressed Metal Corporation South Australia.
