I had 64016 this morning on six 35s. Absolutely fantastic. Smooth, light steering, superb brakes, the only thing wrong was the lack of cash trays. After four and a half hours driving, I felt as if I hadn't done anything, it was such a pleasure to drive. Lets hope the rest of the Citaros are the same. Its just a pity it was raining and there weren't any photographers about.
Fantastic to hear such positive feedback!

Must have been you I spotted yesterday morning. Glad to hear they seem a decent vehicle - I believe they even have the luxury of electric windows

64044 has electric window operation, but the switch was connected the wrong way round... press up to go down, and down to go up!
