There is a glut of deckers coming out of London with many more to folllow in the next few months so don't be surprised if the DLA's start getting replaced too. We are currently upto 52/03 reg coming out of London, with some 04 plate DAF's also on the scrap heap!
I have heard that Arriva are not winning many new contracts in London (mainly due to the contract price been high they are putting in), is this the reason why the deckers are becoming available?
At one time they had over 23% of routes, but I see that is down to around 18.9%
