The Wright Meridian was a low floor single-decker bus body built on the MAN NL273F chassis by Wrightbus. The body was essentially the same as the Eclipse.[1][2]

The first production vehicle was launched as a demonstrator in October 2007.[3] It was later purchased by Whitelaw's Coaches of Stonehouse who ordered a further five.[4] Two Meridians entered service with Newbury Buses in May 2008.

Four entered service with South Lancs Travel in April 2009, around the same time that Premiere TravelofNottingham acquired two.
