Googling "Majestic Tours AEC Routemaster" brings up pictures of 2 open-top examples in this livery in Scotland with the Britannia logo:
- Majestic Tours AEC Routemaster/Park Royal 13 (CUV 210C/RM2210) https://www.flickr.com/photos/48252636@N07/5621326926 , http://www.showbus.com/B/Bcuv210c.JPG
- MacTours AEC Routemaster-Park Royal 15 (858 DYE/RM727) https://www.flickr.com/photos/jncarter1962/8125564712/

... but they both seem normal length with 4 lower side windows, not the 5 seen here. It seems stretching open top RMs with a 5th full-size window in t'middle is a common form of abuse with a few Scottish victims, so I'm giving up the trail and passing the files up to the specialist team of trained experts.
