Wasn't one of the reasons to Solo's and B9's were off road was because they were waiting for parts anyway?

I think all of us would happily see the Streetlite's disappear but that can't happen sadly.

Side note, seems the two new E400MMC's are out at Blyth already, ones just passed before.

Where is the evidence of the B9s being horrendous? They have been no worse than any other vehicle. One was off the road for ages, but it was with an external for something much more complex.

I think they will be absolutely fine running around on Ashington work. Having driven a couple of them, they are solid, even recently.
