76/78/79 aren't 'fantastic buses'. I had them on the 44 plenty of times, noteably 79. They're really slow off the mark and struggle with roundabouts. 76 smells of damp internally and has gearbox problems and a slower speed. There's something wrong with 78 speed wise also, it's quite slow off the mark and struggles to reach around 40mph.


73/74/75/77 are the most reliable of the 7* fleet interestingly...
