Also the issue of re-creating the X40 livery. Rather expensive that one was, and obviously required external painters (Thornton's) owing to the size of the bus and the complexity of the base livery.
That's a good point. I guess it comes down to the trade in cost vs replacing the Scania artics soon (12 years old now?). May be worthwhile keeping the Mercs and paying a bit extra for the Versas.
