2757M is still on 161! I guess it is the VSOs that are replaced, if they are relly gone, someone pls tell me where they are. Thank you.

I still saw SBS9844 on sv161 today.. So dont think Sv161 VSO is being replaced...

1760J on 89
621J on 89

Based on comparisions of the top-speed of the above, I determine that the mkIII is NOT slower than the mkII. What makes people think they are slow is probably the mkIII's poor acceleration, and the draggy gears that go on and on like there is no tomorrow. What I found out by looking at the speedometer, was that the mkIII changes to 2nd gear at 40km/h, and to 3rd gear at 55km/h, and then cruises at 65km/h, although it can go faster. Interestingly, the gearbox does not seem very forgiving. The driver can just take his foot off the pedal for 3s, and the bus will down-shift! It probably did so at 60km/h, and the bus roared, jerked violently, and screeched! Happened a few times. Baby at the back cries..........
