One thing Daimler Mercedes Benz are good at is producing excellent Diesel engines, I do miss the sound of the 0405n for all its faults you couldn't knock that 12 litre engine.

Oh I agree. Beautiful architecture and the residents are very desirable.

PEs 48xx Enviros are becoming unrelaible (and considering the mileage they have done, you can see why), hence why they want rid of them.
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

Blinds were blank but it was parked on stand H, so I assume on the 9. Fluid leak rear nearside
