Mid life upgrade? nope. today i took a DAF on 985 and the seats and
interior is like the same as the hispano O405s before
refurbishment
Speaking of which, the Hispano MK II bendies should go clean
their seats le...the seat cover is covered in a thick layer of
dust.
Honestly, I feel that ALL SMRT Buses with fabric seats should have
their seat covers replaced with PVC ones, just like what was
done on some O405's seat covers. It seems to me that the fabric
seats is probably one factor that makes it hard to clean the seats
as fabric trap dust easily. This might explain why some fabric seat
buses don't smell pleasant other than another very possible factor
of lack of regular cleaning of bus interior. Maybe some of you
guys have compared the difference in interior smell of a
PVC seat O405 and fabric seat O405? Then you will know what I
mean. However, replacing the fabric seat covers with PVC ones
only helps to keep the bus cleaner to a certain extend
and more importantly, such a replacement is only to
make regular cleaning easier.
