I liked all those to be honest, although I hated it when a breadvan would turn up on a busy route.
Some of the electric vehicles look good, particularly the Alexander Dennis bodied ones but the majority have a boring look about them and just basically a box on wheels. One of the enjoyable things about being on a bus is listening to the engine and gear changes - something that gives them character. Some of these electric vehicles make some awful noises. I remember seeing a video of a demo one and it sounded absolutely dreadful!

Oh yeah I agree. The versas are a good bus in my opinion but I would more than happily swap them for a Leyland National, Lynx, Atlantean, Olympian or MCW Metrobus anytime!
