It's worth noting 23-CBS has the modern black interior similar to the Bustech CDi.

They are great buses. Admittedly they haven't got the get up and go but are much smoother in the take off and gear changes because they aren't derated and they use the gearbox fully where the b12s don't. I feel They will however wear out a lot quicker than the b12 because they need to work to do the job where the b12s don't work very hard at all. All in all a well setup vehicle but not without teething problems
