The Bluebird Tucana entered production in 2005 fitted to the Volkswagen Transporter T5 chassis.

[1] Over 650 were built, with Transport for London purchasing over 250 for use on Dial-a-Ride services.

[2][3][4] A number are used by Sheffield Community Transport in South Yorkshire.

[citation needed] Woodall Nicholson purchased the rights to the Tucana and transferred production from Scarborough to its Mellor Coachcraft subsidiary in Rochdale after Bluebird entered administration in 2014.
