They were, maybe still are. But their buses can still be seen at Ince Blundell. Obviously maybe some are based there for some reason.

I actually did also see a group of vehicles at since Blundell but there was a mix of older mid preservation buses as well as what looked to be ex Arriva B7s in the midst of preservation but also I spotted one fire engine looked to be ex LFB in the midst of preservation. Quite a nice collection from what I saw.

I don’t know who it belongs to, other than I’ve seen some (ex Northern Ireland in blue) on the Bellerive school contract service

Had a quick look around Presidential earlier, 4110 is now MIG 9505 and 4108 now MIG 9504, 9503 was also present on another but as it was parked to the side I couldn't work out the former fleet number, 4115 hasn't been reregistered yet, and 4102 was parked at the back and it's old registration no longer shows on the DVLA so I don't know which one that may be, if anyone has observed them out and about and knows which one is which it would be much appreciated.
