Ah, ever saw once a UD coach in Iraq, carrying prisoners out from prison, of course.
And a Toyota Coaster blasted open by a road side bomb, all pax died, thas bad...
And explaination; UDs designed by Japanese people, those that you see in SG. Its perfectly ok for their country, but might not suit here.
So when this happens, what can you do?
Zhng the bus loh!
Send to Sungei Kadut, zhng, can already!
1. Put on Comfort Delgro's newest zhng kit.
2. Doors closing, got neon flashing below the door. Blind also can see.
3. AC, put anything that you feels cold, cos some say Hispacold not good enough, must have GE refrigerator, cos I have one and I know how cold it is.
4. Get it on the road!

The reason is very simple. TIBS had always believed in CBU (Completely Built Up) buses. Hence, the Nissans are CBU in Japan and then sent to Singapore. This explains why the buses are of Japanese configuration.

Besides, I believe back then, besides Japan, no other body manufacturers have body kits that fits a Japanese configured city bus. You all should know Japan is very self sufficient, especially in terms of IT.

So that means all SMRT buses are built overseas then shipped to SG? Unlike some SBS buses which are assembled here?

stooper SG

LOL... The exterior will be colder than the lousy CAC air-con interior... Laughing

Apex-LW'21 SG

should sell to Ireland instead, just like the Volvo B57s.

Apex-LW'21 SG

then it will be freezing ...

swee_heng SG

what i think is these CAC Nissans should get its windows removed & use glass sheets to replace its windows , just like wat SBST’s CAC buses have. Those windows on Nissans looks awful & ugly , if tey put glass sheets it will be better

swee_heng SG

i know why there isnt any Nissans in KJ coz those buses in KJ are good runners , take KJ’s 190 bendies/shorties for example it runs like siao on PIE , at least got 80/90km/h , while WL’s 960 bendies and shorties are damn slow. it seems like Wl’s buses are damn lousy & Kj has gd buses thats why WL has most Nissan cacs

Scania N113CRB luver SG

Ya.
Wld= all types of bendy bus= slower buses
KJ= Lesser varieties= super fast buses
AMK= dunno leh

stooper SG

Yeah, another cheapskate thing of SMRT... The ELBO Scania windows rattle like crazy... At least SBST replaces the windows.

TIB1018B SG

KJDEP in fact used to have Nissan buses (RCN and SCN) and Hino Buses. In 1998, it was Tibs' decision to centralise majority of Nissan buses under WLDEP when it first opened due to maintenance reasons. That was when full fleet of KJ Nissans (RCN and SCN) and majority of AMK Nissans were transferred over to WLDEP. Hinos were then left behind at KJ.

off_service SG

Yes.

swee_heng SG

ya. SMRT looks very cheapskate , some ppl say that SBST is even more cheapskate because of their NAC buses , SMRt is MORE cheapskate coz they just use stoppers on their windows as a conversion of buses. SBST's CAC buses looks as if like they are newly bought because of its windows

SBS9889U SG

Some CAC mercs some window can open one(SMRT).

Volvo Olympian SG

Ermm so? need to complaint more? Rolling Eyes

sBs_boy SG

So.. Whatz Your Point ??

GREED SG

WHAT the hell can you gain by shouting here? RUBBISH.

iveco SG

No wonder the acquisition cost for SMRT (former Tibs) buses is higher. However, the Hispano Mercs and bendies have a classier look, especially the Habit ones.

Even the interior of the CRL Striders look more fanciful than that of the Mk IVs.

Volvo Olympian SG

Yeah true , and there was also Hino HT238K on Sv 175 during its final years.

105090 SG

u sure 80-90kmph? 60kmph looks quite fast le..

anyway, if it 80kmph, then we know LTA isnt fair in giving out summons
