the Scanias are younger than MKII rite?

Not a single MB O405 has a 2-year lifespan extension

SBS 9631X SG

Looks like they decided to change their mind instead:
They have extended the Scanias instead for 2 more years while they leave the O405s at 17 yrs of lifespan.

BusSpeeder SG

i remember someone stated the expiry dates for MBO405, only this one 2007, then the others i see is until 2009.

stooper SG

Recently stripped of ads and repainted leh... Confused

SBS9806J SG

That's because thy are registered from 1990 - 1992, that's why de-registry is from 2007 - 2009

Add on, new bus number plates..

Why SBS scrapped all the Mercs before lifespan and no extension? There are 700 Mercedes 0405s on the roads and it will take a long time before all of them are gone for good. Confused

BusSpeeder SG

think the new Scania WAB SDs will cover them if the 100 buses trial went successful, 1000 of these buses will come.

I just hope SBST does extend the lifespan of the O405, many of them have been extensively refurbished with new floorboards, license plates, repainted/restickered liveries etc, and I must say AM/BR & SL depots have done a good job maintaining the buses. Even if they don’t, I hope the buses can be sold overseas as they are still in quite good condition.

For goodness sake, all these old buses should make way for new ones. Like them or not, they have to go.

Btw, 1000 over buses will not be all Scania WAB buses, please take note that there are other bus models in consideration that includes both SD and DD WAB buses.

1754C & 1780B on Lay Up till Lifespan Expiry. Crying or Very sad

So is it true that MB are not given extension?

Scania SG

Apparently they love to do last minute extension, 3668E and 3675J were done after their 17 years lifespan expiry. O.405s, I think have higher chance of being extended.

SBS9888Y SG

if they dun extend...some of the Merc would go earlier thansome of the Mark IIs Shocked so its quite clear they would have to extend...i think they may do selective extension of the MB...some extend some go...but remember its 700 units...its a good thing ive completed 695 of them (5 cant complete because 2 - scrapped before i took them and 3 converted to training buses before i got to take them)

Scania SG

I think the Mercs would be a great help for SBST when the Mk2s and part of the Scanias are gone, they are going to face a shortage of buses without the O.405s.

BusSpeeder SG

bye bye SBS 82P, we’ll miss you… , think deregistered by now, but onemotoring.com haven’t update because only today starts deregistration, maybe a last minute extension on its lifespan

bus555 SG

OMG!! I forgot today it has been scrapped Shocked

SBS9806J SG

Close and ban 1802 Cent

BusSpeeder SG

most likely sold off, the buses are quite good so i highly doubt they will be scrapped unless its damaged.

tintinspartan SG

I think the 1710 - 1720 series of Volvo B10M MKIIs and SBS82S have been deregistered today. SBS82S becomes ghost and MKIIs are sent to the scrap grave Crying or Very sad
