The Wright SolarFusion seats feel very worn out it's roof leaks a lot it rattles . The old double deckers ( olympians ) are vandalized with X-rated drawings , sometimes they leak , they rattle , they are slow, they stink , what if you were disabled and a bus turned up and it was not low-floor ? , And with X-rated drawing on the olympians and leaky windows and a slow engine this should have gone to the scrapyard a decade ago .

Whats wrong with Bury - The Mercedes are great for there age - they've done almost 15 years of service & im sorry,but "where it says stopping are covered in advertisements" Is one of the most stupid things to moan about that ive heard!,how about instead of adverts they chuck the prices up to cover income lost?.Enviro 400s Look Cleaner? - is that why when i was in Huddersfield i saw a filthy Enviro 400 With a peice of its Rear bumper snapped off,a bus type doesn't make it look cleaner,that's the bus washes job!The Old double deckers are Vandalized - im guessing B9TLs or Enviro 400s are vandalized as well? - vandals dont normally pick & choose a bus to vandalize by age & its hardly the bus company's fault that its routes are used by little vandals is it?from what i can see a lot of bury network is quite high frequency served by a lot of modern buses - something a lot of areas up & down the country would love to have so stop moaning & nit picking,dont like it then buy a car!

Am sorry VauxhallAstra VXR, but I agree with Wright Eclipse. My inlaws live in Heywood, and the buses which First operates on the Heywood area routes, are some of the cleanest and well maintained buses in the country.
