I was driving 2206 today, what are the chances eh. Had it private to Solihull then to Birmingham. It broke down, alternator is gone, drove it back to garage NIS. Being repaired as we speak. Got replaced by 1936! 2201/2 are still on. 2206 would have been on the 31 later but 1936 will be instead. Also 2209 just arrived.

Forget what I just said - just saw your review in the other thread - had a ride on 2201 today and it was excellent - very smooth suspension, no rattling and very smartly done.

Cheers Tony at first glance I thought it was an Attain Coach until it turned & realised it was a MMC. Looking good from what I saw of the rear

Turns out my bus has been swapped for 7021 now!
