Blyth's older Enviros, well they are what they are (at least after their Sapphire refurb by Thorntons seemed to minimise the rattles) but it is obvious they have had a hard life as well.
To be fair, the Pulsar Gemini's are aging far better than their Daimler powered successors at GNE's Riverside & Washington - some of them considerably younger than the Geminis too! And no doubt they'll probably have to carry more passengers soon, bailing out knackered ones pulled up on the Coast Road or along the seafront with their hazards on!
