The NB4L has proved to be divisive. There are undoubtedly some good and some poor aspects to it in terms of functionality, cost and styling.
However, for all its faults, it isn't in the same league as some of the other cock-ups in bus design (or indeed, using van or truck chassis for bus work).
Some, like the Guy Wulfrunian, brought the company down!!!
Also, I'd advise anyone who hasn't experienced them, get a cheap ticket to Middlesbrough and try a Temsa Avenue, again mentioned earlier in this thread. They are ugly as sin. Seats have been velcroed in (not a joke). As you don't need heaters in Turkey, they've had to retrofit some. They look like ones you'd have found in a Bristol RE 50 years ago!
