Even with the brightness all the way up?

Yeah I have brightness all the way up it don't make a difference sometimes I even try and but my hand to try and shield it.

Six more electrics have been registered, E251; E252; E253; E255; E256 & E257
details here  E001 upwards (wmbusphotos.com)

These are planned to see first use on the Bristol to Glastonbury shuttles next month

Wasn't it the Zenobe, Z400* buses that was used up Glastonbury last year. 

I've been using mobile ticketing since September now as college issued it onto my phone instead of putting it on my swift card again. However I've noticed with the sunny weather the sun reflects of the phone meaning sometimes the ticket won't scan, now some drivers are understanding with this issue and ask to see the ticket and then let you on but some keep making you try and try scanning it and are funny about it, it's a shame the QR code scanner could not be moved to avoid this issue with not scanning, 

1887,
The rear drivers side indicator is playing up at the top part of it randomly flickers.

6918 not tracking on the 2.

The upstairs CCTV screen is broken and not working, the USB ports on the top deck front row on the drivers side have a issue where it looks like they have been ripped out the inside of them is missing. 

4698 just seen near great barr

4168 just seen at great Barr.

32307,
Side destination blind is not working, the next stop announcement screen is now showing the date, time or what route it is on and also the doors are very slow closing as if the air pressure is low they have been like this for a while now. 

Guessing this was the one that collided with the pub in Burntwood?

Yes, from what I heard it was a pub it collided with, have you seen the damage. 

Bloody hell, Egypt! What was the damage?

I haven't actually seen the damage of it, I think it's hidden in Chaserider depot maybe in the workshop areas unless it's at one of the other Centrebus or D&G sites. However from what I've been told it's pretty bad damage. 

Ah right makes sense was just wondering why the E200 wasn't on the 36 or 35A and then SN64CVM could have been on the 35A as I know the E200 has done the 36 before

506 which was one of the enviro 200s has gone to high peak I believe it's only on loan though so that's one less euro 6 bus at the moment for Chaserider. And then with 641 and 630 off the road that's at least 3 euro 6 buses ofd the road.

Unless there was a mistake that should be the 5th veichle unless they have a fifth but not a ticket machine for it yet. It is usually this one and AS09PAN on the 19 the other two E200's haven't been out in a while on the 19 presumably there spare I think bus 1 didn't have an assault screen which is needed on the 19

Yeah I would definitely recommend an assault screen on the 19 route, I heard a rumor it had its window smashed and hasent been seen since, I wonder if they will get it fitted with a assault screen so if any buses have their windows smashed then that can do out with a assault screen.

It seems they've been rushed in to service, they were only acquired Monday this week.

It was on loan for Warranty Cover via Wrightbus last time, there is a picture in my original post you quoted

Yeah I know I do have a photo of it somewhere along with the other one which was also on WrightBus warranty loan.
