Does anybody know, what happened to the four Fiat Bluebird buses, after Libertybus jersey finished using them?

They went to Bristol Community Transport (also part of HCT Group at the time), for use on local services around Bristol. They were extremely unreliable (as they had been in Jersey) so didn't cover much mileage. Eventually, two were transferred to Manchester Community Transport in late 2019/early 2020. They were extremely unreliable there too, although I did spend an enjoyable evening road testing one all around Rochdale and Oldham. When MCT closed, I think they ended up parked up with the other two back in Bristol, out of service. They were very well specified for customers, but unfortunately not robust enough for all day every day public service so they didn't last very long on anything.
