They obviously found a way to bid competitively judging by the above wins

And Diamond buying most of the opposition has helped!

Yeah likely and who knows there could be B variant for 12 to replace 122.

Be interesting to see if nxwm draft in more minibuses for these routes, as I'm pretty sure there isn't enough short wheelbase enviro200s to go arround. And can't see a full sized e200 getting arround Langley village or the surrounding roads with great ease. Never know might be surprised with some wright streerlites similar to Dundee's, or more E200s.

We could quite easily give up 3 of the 5 Streetlite's to be honest... We only need 1 for a Angus Contract and one for the 360... And if they have up the 360 as being rumoured in the local press that would be 4....

Are they euro 6? I thought all tenders awarded were being based on euro 6 requirements?

The one for the 360 is the ex-demo StreetAir though, so if that came down here, whatever garage had it would need charging facilities. Still, that'd meet the Euro 6 requirement.

No it's not, It's a standard StreetLite
