(03 Oct 2022, 10:03 am)tcts24 wrote The MAN's may be a headache for engineering but there's an increasing amount of drivers prefering to drive them over the ADL's because of all the issues they develop in service on top of half of them often running in limp mode. My personal favoutite to drive is 39667 which looks like I'll be getting as my first bus, followed by 36093, which isn't too bad for one of those now they've sorted the problem with the brakes jamming.Although technically Hartlepool should have at least one large bus ( if not a decker ) for the UTC contract instead of 36093 been used for it. I actually think taking 39666 off was a mistake when they plenty of worse buses in the fleet it’s a shame 34605 is unlikely to ever return to service as well as I actually like the early dart SLF.
