The Alexander Dash is a step-entrance midibus body built by Walter Alexander Coachbuilders of Scotland from 1991 to 1997. It was one of the variants of Alexander's AM-type body and was usually combined with the Dennis Dart and Volvo B6 step-entrance single-decker bus chassis. Many United Kingdom operators had used these buses for interurban and rural services rather than metropolitan or inner-urban service, due to its step-floor, slim body and high capacity nature.

| - The Alexander Dash is a step-entrance midibus body built by Walter Alexander Coachbuilders of Scotland from 1991 to 1997. It was one of the variants of Alexander's AM-type body and was usually combined with the Dennis Dart and Volvo B6 step-entrance single-decker bus chassis. It has a slightly rounded roof dome and it has a double-curvature windscreen (either horizontal or V-shaped) with an arched top as common. The body was mainly built for the United Kingdom bus market, although one example with a Volvo B6R chassis and air-conditioning was shipped to Hong Kong as a demonstrator. This bus was later acquired by Citybus. Many United Kingdom operators had used these buses for interurban and rural services rather than metropolitan or inner-urban service, due to its step-floor, slim body and high capacity nature. In London the Alexander Dash, used on routes 127, 160, 177, 202, 238 and 247; operated by Selkent and Stagecoach East London, had a short service life, being withdrawn between 1998 and 1999 and disposed to other regions of Stagecoach. It was superseded by the low floor Alexander ALX200 in 1996–1997 with a more rounded roof dome and plastic mouldings under the windscreen to make it deeper having made on the Dennis Dart SLF and the Volvo B6LE chassis.
