Lovely bus, however it has a deafening "shelf rattle" which I've complained about via the Arriva North West Facebook page. The screws can be tightened, however they become loose again after a few moments. After one hour on that bus, I got off with a headache!

2919 (CX58 EXL) is another 'rattler'. The window hopper nearest the luggage bay isn't fitted in place properly. Makes an absolutely AWFUL noise!

Must say that I had that this afternoon on my 311 and it was absolutely fine - apart from it being sluggish. I sent a complaint in about 3021 and it's been forwarded to the engineering manager at Bootle. Hopefully, something will be done about that... Don't ask, don't get!

There are a few like that, so it's not alone. I prefer 3107 as it, strangely, seems to have its revs set higher than the rest of the batch!
