 Trent Barton  and UK bus manufacturer Optare and design consultancy Best Impressions  and with help from ranbow 4 (soon to be i4) customers on the  shape and  the eye-catching design of the new bus.

    Although somewhat maligned of late, I still believe the look and style and ride quality even now in 2018 of these buses is refreshingly good. I shall be sorry to see them go, even if engineers may not. That livery and the profile shape of the design is terrific. In terms of strking appearance, I feel its successors will find it hard to match
