The V reg Presidents will be pushing 16 years on the road by the time of next years order, which is hardly ideal for a bus in a front line role..

Yeah hopefully it will get something more modern this year (or next) as I'm not a big fan of the Pronto Presidents and more often opt for the X2 (although it depends what time I get to the stop). Hopefully whatever the X21 gets it will have a few more seats as the Newcastle journey that leaves Durham at 0936 is always rammed.
