Another dart has appeared at the garage, this time with Munro's written on the front

They went bust didnt they? Was it an ALX200 by any chance?

No, it's a plaxton pointer

Oh right-just knew munro's had a lot of alx200s but obviously some pointers as well-better in my opinion

Repaint cost varys on everything really
Our inhouse commerical team here say on average around £3k - £4k but unsure

Your in-house commercial team need sacking! A decent respray is around £1k-£1.5k for singe decks, £1.5k-£2k for deckers depending on the operators paint scheme

One may further assume that they will retain the Munros fleetnames for a few years knowing this lot...

Obviously going back a couple of years ago now, but Veolia Transport paid NXWM £800 to get a irizar pb painted into plain white, which keltruck said they would match if they went back to getting them painted by them. The paint job by nx was also a poor standard to keltrucks ones too! So to answer, not very much if you just want a very basic one colour job.


And to also say weldone to TX to giving the 529 I wonder if they will do any better than diamond did doing the other half of the route?
As always a campaigner for competition I think its good to give passengers choice, some passenger vote with the wallet others don't, but don't shoot a man for trying!!

Why does repainting a bus cost over £1000? Obviously a few tins of paint can't cost that much so where do the rest of the costs come from? I assume labour costs and transporting the bus to the paint shop?
