The one thing that stood out to me on 2652 once it had its MAX refurb was the chrome handle on the outside of the emergency exit door, looks tidy.

Andy it had a major smash and if you seen what it looked like you may understand why it could be withdrawn.

If thats the pulsar i think it is its moe than likely scrap due to the damage. Seen it on pictures and upclose myself and the damage is a lot worse than it looks. Basicly from the wheelarches forward the whole thing needs replacing

Although, that said, Arriva Yorkshire Pulsar 1464 was also in a very bad way after it's accident (car speeding at about 80mph if I recall correctly, was featured on of those TV programmes following the emergency services), bus has returned to service eventually.....

It is the pulsar that you are thinking of, its almost like the whole front end needs replacing isn't it,shocking how that can happen from just one hit.
