It was really nippy when it arrived at winsford but now seems to have gotten worse, is this a performance issue or maintenance maybe but probs just age cos they're all S reg so how old are these now gotta be 12+ yrs old???

Also anyone know what's the top speed of a DLA, been told by a couple of drivers that running dead back to the depot some will hit 65 along the bypass? But for worst DLA its a toss up between 4074/4143 for me, 74 is better presented & 4143 is just an absolute mobile shed!

Managed to wind up 4050 to 62 mph on a 84 last summer. Mind you I think it was going downhill towards Wardle. Remember having to coast down the bank out of Tarporley to let it cool down and drive very steady back to Crewe.

4050 - 62mph! :O I always thought that thing was dreadful!
