Well obviously they have no choice but to fix it as it is needed in service.. if they left it off the road like they wanted to there would be no point having it here at all! Id imagine theyve used parts off that scrap DLA at the back to make 4025 roadworthy rather than spend anything on it. Either that or bodge it up like its former depots did..

It often failed to complete a full day of work at Bootle and, according to my mate who works as a driver at Speke, it was the same there (but let's not start on criticising specific depots again - they all have their weaknesses). It just shows that depots CAN fix buses when they really want to, such as in this situation (if correct).
