Just like the Mercedes engines in Solos, they shake themselves to death.
Yeah I think that is the main difference definitely. The Arriva Cummins ones I have been on, full size ones, are generally ok, just Arriva use them on express work which is not ideal, but I think the 63 plates that Percy Main have now for the 317 service are ideal for the route.
