I was rather disappointing they went to the Hybrid Geminis. Badly layout on the lower deck and with its low height, ugly enough to make children feel sick.

Enviro400 City would have been a better bet but i would have imagine it would be more expensive.

Would be good to see Optare Metrocity, Scania Irizar i3, B8RLE/B5TL Wright/MCV and Enviro200/Enviro400 MMC on their list.

I have to agree with your comments on the Wright's Hybrid Geminis. I too find them claustrophobic, especially on the lower deck and it's exacerbated by the depressing grey/green interiors that Arriva seem to favour these days which I suspect has been chosen to reduce the need for regular deep cleans. Personally, an Enviro 400 City with a cream interior would be my choice
