lol i saw it today. 12 Bedok - Clementi

here'a shot of it turning out into pandan loop. pic taken along pandan loop.

The front looks very similar to that of the SMRT OC500LEs. Interior colour wise, looks very MAN-like. By the way was that place outside the Mercedes-Benz Service Centre?

Wowo what a sexy bus man? I hope it is not a demo.. maybe replaced the merz 0405 or mk3? anyway speaking of new buses, is there any news of the Euro V kubs? maybe last mins they buy merz instead of scania plus erm gorbra eds? lol another version of coolair and lastly, the interior looks like SBS8031J sio...

jayh272416 SG

Hi, you are right, it's e Pandan Loop Service Center. Also e same stretch of road I saw SMRT OC before their announcement on e purchase last year. At that time, OC rego was TIB0000 when doing road test, but didn't had a camera/camera phone with me, therefore unable to share e good news to u all.

Cheers.

What’s with SBS and its small Electronic Displays like RapidKL?

SinkTel SG

Yea. our 900 KUBs are to replace outgoing N113 and 0405. So maybe this might be the replacement for the MK3. Ppl out there who wants new mercedes on SBS might get their wish after all!

Blackerol SG

Hi, actually SMRT Yutong is shocking news to me, but it'll also be a good alternatives for less expensive buses, therefore making our fares affordable. (hoping)

Merc for SBST will be a good balance in their fleets, as MB O405 gonna phase out soon, so will be left with mostly Volvos ans Scanias.

Cheers.

scaniaB7RLE SG

It does look rather similar when you look at the front...

Just guessing the rego, maybe SBS8032G? Let's not speculate about it. I would suggest on the following:

- Put on 107, 132, 165 if bus is going to be under HGDEP
- Put on 2, 36, 196, 197 if bus is going to be under BNDEP
- Put on 70, 130 or 133 if bus is going to be under AMDEP

etc etc..

A plus point for the body, its a quite similar to the design of other demostrator's front body (like the MAN bus), possibly Gemilang also, but totally not the same as the SMRT Merc buses.

Hi, if I'm not wrong 70 is under AMDEP right?

BTW, e rear looks quite alike to SMRT OC.

Cheers.

Fryderyk HPH SG

I think if under BNDepot the bus should go to Sv.18/38/69... Shorter routing and distance... Though I hope they put it on Sv.42...
