I've never drove a MAN in limp mode yet, only beep at you when there's a genuine fault and with the exeption of 39660 they're reasonably warm.

that's why bag any darts that are decent to scrap some of the worst E200s for parts, and as for 2010 E200s, the 2007-2010 batches seem to be notoriously hit and miss so getting more is another way of allowing some of the worse off vehicles to removed from service, plus In my opinion I know Newcastle could certainly do with losing maybe 5 E200s for E300s as they are regularly appearing on routes they shouldn't be
