And from what I've heard, the E200s did pretty well when they were running on the X9/X10, whether or not they'd last is another question though.
I much prefer the height of the windows, it's the perfect height to rest your arm. I don't know whether it's the interior design of them, but the Streetdecks definitely feel more 'airy' upstairs
Surely if we're going down this route then the Omnicity's are a much higher priority. They're actually getting old, have the same issues with fuel economy and also have the added issue of spare parts getting harder to get. The Citaro's would be an ideal like for like replacement for them on the 50 etc.
