The UVG Urbanstar is a step-entrance and low-floor midibus bodywork built by UVG in Waterlooville, England for the Dennis Dart and Dart SLF chassis.[1] It was later marketed as the Caetano Compass in production with Salvador Caetano. It was mainly sold to small provincial operators throughout the UK, with some being sold to mainstream London-based operators.

It was superseded by the Caetano Nimbus low-floor midibus bodywork for the Dennis Dart SLF chassis only.
