Optares are usually very reliable, arriva NW have got a few that are around 2007 build if memory serves correctly & they're doing fine, have stagecoach gotten a dodgy batch of em maybe???

I don't think the red of that batch at ST perform that badly. 47559 has spent most of its life working the same Glossop route until last year could it be the wear and tear of the Glossop hills maybe??

Even so it's apparently had a full overhaul in recent months hence it's disappearance, and the very week it comes back into use it breaks down again.

it was the radiator hose that broke on beaufort road was back out today on taxis so not really as major problem happens to at least one bus a day takes ten mins to fix when its cooled down
