The ALX300's are horrible buses whatever way you want to paint it from a passenger point of view with horrific leg room.
There's a BIG difference between an ALX 400 from 2005 and an Enviro 200 MMC from 2019. This isn't comparing a Versa versus a Streetlite which are similar and are both relatively modern interior wise or a Gemini 1/2 and a Streetdeck.
And a drop from Streetlites to Versas is a big aswell, goes from leather seats, wood flooring high capacity to awfully discoloured interior.
Its like if the 39/40 who are allocated brand new E400 MMC suddenly start being allocated ALX400's, no one is going to like that.
