I couldn't be on an Enviro400 all the way to Manchester. Also, the Enviro400 sounds rather like a hair dryer, and that gets annoying after a while.

I imagine that ^ would be more appreciated in the First Manchester thread

there is a standed fault with the B9s that is that the cooling fans can break and then the bus sounds really loud

Isn't that fault quite common on the older Enviro400s as well though? There is a couple of the older ones at AZ at at the moment with extremely loud cooking fans that get louder when the bus accelerates.

Yes I've noticed that with the older Enviro400's. They sound awful when they get like that, but they never seem to get fixed for some reason, just allowed to carry on like that. A good few of the 56/07 reg's are really loud these days.
