snowman,

Brighton and Hove have evaluated that same Citaro Bendy twice now. Me and Vjaska know some staff there and theyve told us it keeps breaking down.

The bloke has even done videos of it. They tried parking it over their pits which was tricky!!

Yep, as are Southern Vectis and are the preferred bidder for Plymouth Citybus.
