I can understand a couple of issues with the StreetLite, from a customer point of view, where they're cold in the winter and boiling hot in the summer.
I've never had any problems with the StreetDeck, when has it broke down exactly, did it break down on the TTX, Pronto, TEN...?! No, apparently it broke down on the 18 - which was later confirmed at bulls**t.
Was originally intended to be used on the 18, but wasn't due to a door fault (which was repaired at Chester-le-Street allowing the vehicle to be used on the X21 later that day). I think that's where this 'breakdown' rumour derived from.
Obviously Greg's comment was not intended to be taken seriously, but I'm not entirely sure why the StreetDeck has such an awful reputation? If this vehicle type was not fit for purpose, Go North East wouldn't be purchasing them for the X21!
