I do find it somewhat ridiculous however that the refurbishment of these vehicles is being prioritised ahead of other vehicles such as Cadets, Commanders and younger Pulsars. The pulsars will be around for another 10 years where as the cadets, commanders considerably less. Most of the Cadets and Commanders in the area are allready refurbished, it's just the minority that aren't. |

Historically, buses only get any refurbishment (noticable to the travelling public) half way through their normal working life - which for a standard 'decker or full size single-decker would be about 8yo. 2701/2702 are showing on this months allocation as Southport paint programme cover |

I was thinking in terms of lower reg plate numbers as I typed the post. The Pulsars receiving treatment are hardly in a dire condition inside and are already in new standard livery whilst a good amount of the aforementioned vehicles (particularly at some garages) have still yet to be touched since new. ![[Image: 1chYP.jpg]](http://i.imgur.com/1chYP.jpg)
