I've just checked on Flickr and it's always had those seats. I've seen other Primo's for sale online with the same seats.

Right.... When on earth will you ever use the 23???

I use it almost every day (Instead of the 82A for obvious reasons), however, I wouldn't be using it if I had to sit on a bit of moulded plastic with a flipping tea towel covering it!!!!!

Well to be fair, I probably would.

Purely because the chances of it turning up before the 82A are 100% Tongue

Saw it tonight on service 90. Wasn't keen on the white text above the windows, but the usual JH livery looked smart!

Sure I saw it last weekend in vinyls.

I had to give way to a JH 23 at the angel and could have sworn it was this.
