KR's 20716 is also advertised for sale, along with a couple of Hallmark & Wigan Coachways vehicles
It was in service on the 2/10 today in Kidderminster

Had a ride on 30167 on the X30.
It seemed well underpowered and took ages to build up road speed.
Painfull crawl up to the ring road - felt like it could have been quicker to walk!

20027 on X31 and 30163 on X30 in Coventry this afternoon

I heard there's a 16 plate Streetlite nocking around apparently?

One of the 16 Plate Streetlites from Tividale at a guess?

It will be interesting to see how the 16 plate Euro 6 Daimler engined example compares with the 65 plate Euro 5 Cummins engined batch already at Redditch

I didn't realise that there was a difference. (I've not been on either before)

What gearbox is on these? I'm guessing Voith?
