Not sure if its been rectified but when I was on it last pressing the bell knocked the lights off on one side of the bus for a few seconds. This was a few months back though so im not sure if its still like this.

I suppose the mylleniums have had a hard life - especially the ones originally on the 81!

Well I can say that it vibrated a bit on idle, but no diesel smell and bell worked fine. Nice and loud in fact!

Also, speaking about mylleniums what's happened to 2455 - it has 3 different variations of the livery at the front. Has it had an accident or something and has replacement parts?

Yes I think 2455 did, it was reported on here when it happened but can't remember where or when, however they should have just parked it and forgotten about it as that is another vibrating heap.

Myllennium 2458 Y458KBU had a bit of a bump in Liverpool one bus station on saturday afternoon i was waiting at stand 5 for Ace travels 38 service and 2458 came up on the 75 to pick up at stand 7 but as it rounded the corner it took the corner too tight and hit the end of the center divider wall ripping a nasty looking big gash in the side the driver pulled onto stand 7 and got out to check the damage then immediately took it off service and returned to the layover area think a trip to st helens may be on the cards for it to be repaired.
