  VSO and CNG's are the last with 'old type' ECU systems to be introduced to the SBS fleet.

  Nice bus. I have been bus. Until now then realise about it. Nice bus and refreshing ideas for the interior.
  
  Someone mention about B9L. I saw this B9L chassis at Volvo Bus UK site, B9L engine is offset to the left and right is empty. The radiator is on the roof. Cool bus ! Hope they can consider about this chassis.
  
  Oh yah. Also according to the same site. This Volvo B7RLE I suspect to be the Mark 3. I have predicted SBST going to use B7 since it was a sucess with Sentosa service. It seem it came true.
  
  Thanks Tamago for sharing the photos. I am going to hunt it down !

  use common sense. the top up water for the mark 4 volvo bus is at the driver side (offside) open panel right. NOT at radiator position right?
  
  Obviusoly they have pipe system for radiator to work and the place where u pour water wun be at the radiator itself mah

  bit of discrepency of the bus specs, the UK one as shown to me by Kris is use Zf6HP554N gearbox . but SBS9816 told me they use ZF5HP592C gearbbox on the 8030. so likly our dear 8030 is not a Mk3 version b7RLE.
  
  as u know the transmission of the bus and bus skeletal chassis kit is all standardised one. gearbox cannot be a discrepnecy.
