hseochin SG So the O 500 LE only available in Australia ? OC 500 LE the standard version without Australian modifications ? When you say 'standard width' i take it to mean 2.5 metres ? while the wider width means 2.55 meters ? So the CNG model here would be OC 500 LE-CNG ??? going by what you say.
105090 SG i got news from an email the OC500LE (CNG) is in Singapore! still painted in white, it is said to feature in the IOC session next week. its hotel is said to be at HG depot

^tamago^ SG It could read: Next Batch Of Volvo B10 MKII To Have Their Life Span Extended 06/07/2005: SBS 1711B, 1712Z, 1713X, 1714T, 1715R, 1716M, 1717K, 1718H, 1719E, 1720A hahas.
CAIX SG Oh yes, yes, I almost forgot that MKII's lifespan has extended. Thanks for reminding me. Now I should concern about Scania 113's life now.
105090 SG yeah.. their silent engine is a very strong plus point.. they dont show signs og aging.. same goes for LO2x.. so sad.. sentenced to death at 17 years old..(is it 17?)
^tamago^ SG wat the......... SD's? the pioneer of DD's in Singapore is Leyland. Scania's are not popular cos it's high-maintenance and it's hard to procure spares.
iveco SG But some major cities in Australia have a significant number of Scanias, both diesel and CNG versions. So that means it is easy to get spares over in Melbourne, where Dysons has a full fleet of L94UBs.
