I actually forgot there was another fire involving London United's ADH1 on 27 May this year, which made it 7 fires out of 6 months.
Stagecoach Manchester seem to suffer a disproportionate occasion of fire, but from what I read, it is more about the early production ones that are more suspected to fires. Almost all except the one burnt out on christmas eve were 2011-built vintage. There was actually another fire - ironically from Stagecoach Manchester as well (12036) - back in 2013.
But then, it is not like that more recent built examples are totally immune to self combustion. In fact this one happened only back in October last year, making a total of 9 fires over the last 12 months.
