i am an ex bus driver for aberdeen and i am sure the deckers shown was gone from the city at this time i left in 2006 and i am sure the all went in 2005
I take it that they are B9TL's, they sound quite powerful, but compared to a B7TL and a Voith gearbox, they don't do a lot for me. I tried out the B9TL in Edinburgh. I bet the leather seats are nice though. I hope they don't replace the Alexander Olympians there, proper buses built in Scotland them!
You should get some of the new £260,000 (each) Volvo Wright Eclipse emini Double Deckers that have just came into service, full leather interior too(although it looks vinyl).

they went in 2008, replaced by the SV08 F** geminis
We've just got them. At least 4 of them. Finally my bus fares are going to good use!

Actually thats exactly what they are to replace. Pity really. Not sure on what engine there running though.
