No doubt all of them will not last until that age. In fact there will be quite a number of X platers with the cadets & some renowns. Once the Y plater renowns are gone there will be quite a gap in single deck buses that will need to be replaced. The gap being about 4 years.

Time flies...I remember the X/ANC's being brand new, seeing 2208 on test in Huyton before it entered service, and being surprised to see 2219/21 on Bootle routes one night, had no idea they were due!
