A total of 79 Europeans were built, of which besides five that were purchased by Yorkshire Traction, 59 were purchased by companies owned by the British Bus group.[1] These companies were Luton & District (taking 27),[2] Northumbria Motor Services (20), Midland Fox (14), Clydeside 2000 (eight)[3][4] and Derby City Transport (five).

The European was superseded in late 1996 by the Flyte.
