Clydeside was re-merged with <a href="/wiki/Western_Scottish" title="Western Scottish">Western Scottish</a> (Western SMT's successor company) in 1989 in an attempt to make it more financially viable. However, on the privatisation of Western Scottish the Clydeside operations were sold in a <a href="/wiki/Management_buyout" title="Management buyout">management buyout</a> as Clydeside 2000 plc with <a href="/wiki/Arriva_Shires_%26_Essex" class="mw-redirect" title="Arriva Shires & Essex">Luton & District</a> taking a 23% stake.

The Greenock operations were re-branded GMS Greenock Motor Services, using Ashton's white, green and gold livery, in order to more effectively combat the plethora of small operators in the town.<sup id="cite_ref-Buses510_7-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Buses510-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Long established independent operator <a href="/wiki/McGill%27s_Bus_Services" title="McGill's Bus Services">McGill's Bus Services</a> of <a href="/wiki/Barrhead" title="Barrhead">Barrhead</a> was also purchased in the same month, and initially continued to operate under its own identity.<sup id="cite_ref-Buses510_7-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Buses510-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> A stake was also taken in <a href="/wiki/Dart_Buses" title="Dart Buses">Dart Buses</a> of Paisley, another competitor, though this operator would soon go out of business. </p><p>Shortly after being launched as Arriva Scotland West in 1998, the company flirted with operations outside its traditional operating area, successfully securing tenders to operate services in <a href="/wiki/Cumbernauld" title="Cumbernauld">Cumbernauld</a> (where a depot was established for a few years) and south east Glasgow, though these were short-lived. It is said that Cumbernauld prompted "the look east". Arriva tried to expand further in Scotland by purchasing <a href="/wiki/Xplore_Dundee" title="Xplore Dundee">Xplore Dundee</a> but they went to National Express instead. It was also interested in purchasing <a href="/wiki/Midland_Bluebird" class="mw-redirect" title="Midland Bluebird">Midland Bluebird</a> and a <a href="/wiki/Strathclyde_Buses" title="Strathclyde Buses">Strathclyde Buses</a> depot if they were sold following the OFT's requirements for First to sell them but Stagecoach's increased attempts at competing for the Greater Glasgow bus market put paid to that. Later that year, Arriva tried to run contracted services in Edinburgh. <a href="/wiki/Lothian_Buses" title="Lothian Buses">Lothian Buses</a> had run the services for a while but when it was time to renew said contracts, the council considered Lothian's new tender prices to be too expensive. So then it invited other operators the opportunity to participate instead and was pleasantly surprised to see bids from Arriva using new low floor buses, for a substantially cheaper price than Lothian! The tenders were accepted but shortly before they were due to commence, the council was advised that Arriva had withdrawn their bids. In a move that some might consider to be of a dubious nature, Lothian also stated later that day that they could run the contracts for free when previously it couldn't. Exactly how that is still remains a mystery to this day. </p><p>Further rationalisation took place in 2001, with the Inverclyde operations being sold to local management.
