They sound pretty much the same so common sense tells you it's right, they know what they're doing

Yeah, they both use the Cummins ISBe4 engine coupled up to an Allison 2000 series gearbox.

Any darts pretty much 02 onwards (except KU02 YUH) have this combination. I believe it is also used on DAFSB120's of a similar age. I quite like them Smile

Seems a odd move considering newer buses such as 124, 155/255/355 could do with LED's

It's no big deal, maybe the blinds seized up or ripped, hence why it was fitted with LED's.

It's hardly interesting! A bus fitted with LED's is the norm these days. Hopefully the admin team will delete these posts that are clogging up the thread.

Well it could be construed as interesting by some as that particular bus is very old - probably near the end of its life in service.
