Yes, i got the point, except the way i phrased my reply got this misunderstanding.Apologies. "It'll become the next complaint on STOMP" is referring to the STOMP community who may see the torn fabric and stomp it saying "it is a new bus and seats are already being worn in". ya.
@ off_service the best seats are found on Hispano Habits :D
No, the best seats are found on the B7RLEs.

they sae its 2nd batch, so i expect to be diff bodywork.. :)
Donnoe if SMRT's definition of batch == SBST's definition of batch *coughKUB bodyworkcough*. But now still not so bad - 132 of the OCs in same bodywork is ok.
The black soot keep on appearing on the back of OC500LE, wonder when SMRT will take relevant and long-term action, SMB52K had this soot now le, in addition, SMRT chose wrong sticker typoe for mind ur step sticker le, the sticker peel off like free,
OT: I long long did not take OC le, O levels are near
Now like most OC have black soot at their back it resemble like bricks .
SMB31X on 969 today 9/1/2009. Saw it in Woodlands Int when it is going out of woodlands Int

Just wondering, is SMB42P the only bus to have windows similar to the Scania K230UB on the driver's side?

Hmm..isit Gemilang/SMRT's idea of bodywork variation?
seems that either it's a specification gone wrong or the idea of not having a window for BC didn't quite turn out well.

I'm inclined to think the latter. If you notice, the "peephole" (that's what I call it) is located too much forward for the bus driver to reach while staying comfortably seated; one will have to bend forwards in order to reach the peephole. If it was located somewhar further back, and was slightly wider, it could have worked better.
Of course, having full-size windows are better since the driver can poke his hand out more freely than a tiny peephole.

i always see OC500LE SLs holding a towel with their right hand out of the peephole trying to cut to the outer lanes. quite cute..

He meant TIB1245L has these: 

Notice the thing sticking out from the bumper which other habits (compare with TIB1049L photo below the TIB1245L photo) don't have.
As for the TIB1222C I think he meant TIB1222C cameoed on 912. TIB1234T & TIB1230D cameoed on 901 the past few days ... ...

Might be...as i had predicted at the Photos of Buses thread last month when a W****** 96 posted some shots taken at interchange. It'll create new accounts to continue posting.
I've lost the respect for him, so i'll be referring W******96 as "it".
Any sightings of the batch 2 OC500LEs yet?

Spotted an OC on 187 at around 6:45am along Jurong West Ave 1 yesterday...
Originally posted by off_service:At least the new seats are well cushioned. The old seats are mostly left with flatten cushion which makes one feel like sitting on wooden plank.
i'd rather they fit in house Citaro seats. Those reduce vibrations 100% thus ensuring you float around in your seat all the time.
