https://www.busandcoachcentre.co.uk/info...c-for-sale - There's ex London dual doors being sold for £24,000 still so they still have some value. I don't know how much the scrapper gives but be surprised if it's anywhere near that.
Outside of scrapping, Selby probably would be the best bet rather than E6 mods for Blyth really - they're really struggling down there and they're all part of the same batch, might help them get along until something newer comes as I don't believe this E400MMC order coming now is replacing them (that's the Hybrids and remaining E400's).
Side note the hybrids of the early to mid 10's really were junk; with Stagecoach, Arriva and GoNorthEast now all getting shot of the things, well before they should be going.
