As said, limited market in Europe for double deckers. And even in other parts of the world (USA, China and now even Australia) most double deckers are UK-built in some way. The fact the only 2 non-UK manufactures who have made waves in the UK Decker market are Volvo (who's most successful product - the Olympian - was designed by Bristol and acquired through the purchase of Leyland) and DAF/VDL (again, the DB250 was based on the MCW Metrobus). It's only 8 years since MAN tried to enter the market with their ND243F, and that didn't come off (only one example was built - RX07RKV - which was low height for trials in Germany, and the second full height example never came about).
