Oceane SG ZF 6-speed. Surely with MKIV DM already sounding like Dennis Lance (ZF 4-speed) this bus would also sound like one mah. Just hope it don't have such low frequency engine sounds for 5th gear or 6th gear like the K230s.
Oceane SG Ugly lor. The photo Chris took (first pic of 8030L) with the left signal turned on really looks like a devil shining his teeth. Ok... stop imagining.
SBS594D SG hey gt one question, is this the only single-deck bus in the world that has no rear window lolz
Oceane SG Only difference between them is Dennis Lance has this turbocharge sound after 1st gear while MKIV DM is of a lower frequency.
kenn3th SG Kinda but sbs seriously have to go back to the drawing board and cut some corners (Like they always do) to non demos and change the design abit.
chickenlittle2 SG Ya, SBS 3911C was on Svc 242 today. I think this bus seems like just cameo on 174E.
ZYX2005 SG the Malaysia KL newer UDs have no rear windows. and also most United states models also dun have rear windows. ZYX
ZYX2005 SG error the gearbox is a Zf5HP592C ecomat II interior rocks. performance rocks. seat ok. rigid bucket seats but comfy. unlike KL, they used REAL expensive Vogesitze. these seats r the most modern European product ever on a bus. lol bus pick up very fast. not gutless at all. seating is 28 compared with scania 29. like the "granny" seats at front. like the copy Citaro seating style at rear. like the one person grip n standee space at rear exit. like the dash. nice 6 paged computer display. can even do diagnostics on board bus. on baord computer zai. is a coach dash not citybus format. no wonder i see i blur. big windows and no rattling sound gives u the impression that u are in a new bus ZYX
SBS9888Y SG i love the first row..its 1 dam wide seat for dam fat people me and my fren squeezed on the front row left seat in the morn...
TIB1224Y SG Wow, five speed? Fresh... BC must be flooded with questions today man... So many people come see see look look...
201911 SG interior design is rather like the B9TL, looks quite nice, esp the back. seats also have a rather unique design, a bit like rapidKL, but at least got stuffing. i dun understand why some people dun like the back. the absence of rear window is rather refreshing, but i dun think its very nice nor very ugly. but the front is... looks like an attempt to put a coach front onto a public bus, IMO looks like a devil glaring at you. the two white parts at the sides of the front bumper looks very obiang, wud look better if its painted purple. other then the front the aesthetic design of the bus is still rather good, and a refreshing change from conventional designs.
sBs_boy SG It was not design by SBS in the first place. Do not think that evrything is by in-house designer.
sBs_boy SG Originally posted by TIB 589B: [b]The rear of the bus http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff297/TIB589B/8030L_174e_rear.jpg[/b]There is a reason on why the back of the bus is design in this way.
SBS9888Y SG somehow i feel that the VOLVO badges were isntalled by SBSt..because when i saw it before revenue service..it did not have 3 shiny VOLVO badges all over the bus
^tamago^ SG thumbs up for this bus! controls are very agile with a responsive and powerful engine. worth joyriding again and again.
