In July 2008, a competition was launched by BoJo to design a new Routemaster bus for the capital, attracting attracted 700 entries.
Warwickshire-based sports car maker Aston Martin, along with architects Foster and Partners, won the £25,000 prize jointly with Wiltshire bus maker Capoco Design.
The contract to build the new bus for London was awarded to Wrightbus in January 2010. The TfL is hoping the bus to enter service by 2012.
