They are very comfy to drive and the heaters are like a sauna. However, I do know the reliability is an issue, Pulsars would cope no bother on there, might be worth considering when the ex NW ones are allocated. The 75/6 should DEFINITELY be Solo only, as the roads which are currently being used for the route are bloody dangerous for a Pulsar. Darlington should be a Dart free zone within weeks, old MPD's are going to scrap, newer ones are going elsewhere and I plan to set fire to the 1300's!!! (only joking!!!)
I've noticed for a good while now that the 75/76 has had a Pulsar allocated to it everyday for months now, no idea why and it really irritates me seeing a Pulsar on the 75/76 then have a Solo turn up on the 1/5/5A.
I'd gladly look the other way if you were to set fire to them 1300 Darts.
