Hail All! 
Just in case anyone is interested; I wandered down to the unveiling of the new Goldline fleet now being used on the 1 route in the Aldershot/Farnborough/Camberley area yesterday. It has to be said that the new vehicles are certainly very nice as far as bus standards go...And like I said yesterday, they feel more like coaches than buses! 8)
Anyhow...I'm useless at reviews, so I'll let the few photos that I took on my mobile yesterday do most of the talking...
All images 640x480 pixels and about ~40Kb. Click thumbnails for full size.
Although it may not be easy to see from the photos themselves, the new buses have very comfortable all leather seating throughout, and there's a lot of space inside them...Indeed, so much space that I - At 5' 7" tall - Was able to stand quite comfortably even right at the very back!
hock:
Given how busy the route can get in the afternoons though, this is probabally more deliberate than accidental! :razz:
Anyhow...I believe that Stagecoach are also going to be introducing these new buses in at least two other areas as well - Though I can't remember where yet. I do sincerely hope that the local chavs won't be so quick to vandalise and graffitti all over these ones though...
