It comes ofr the M53 at Hooton and im pretty sure it will be going down the rock ferry by-pass not in front of the depot, this will be confirmed this coming week though.

That is hard to achieve in a car sometimes , they may have to slacken the times on some journeys not all of them.

Looks like GM now have at least 5 versas, are these really just darts as they sound exactly the same. Anyway, I later caught 25226, first ride on a versa and can't say that i was impressed, plenty of idle vibrations and shake rattle n roll, but what do you expect from an optare. 25226 also had an annoying alarm going off which was apparently for engine temperature, driver said been going off all day and fitters had been out and said nothing was wrong, he also wasn't impressed with the things and said he was stuck with it until nearly 9.

Other versas by the way were 25225 (53), 25230(10a), 25231 (19) and 25234 (10c), anybody know how many gm are getting and what are they replacing although I would imagine one or two are replacing Enviro300's going to X8.
