  Hopefully SBST's Scania K230UBs will not end up like the Elbo Scanias that SMRT have.

  I think the late Batch 2 Euro IV KUBs(85xx range) is very well-tuned. The Euro EEVs too. Won't become rattling buses anytime soon... Early Batch 2 and most Batch 1 Euro IVs are very jerky and most are already rattling. But surprising 8034B, the second or third Batch 1 KUB Euro IV(perm 174), is nothing like that leh... I think maintainence also plays a part in that.

  ELBO looks more older den Striders & DAFs in terms of interiors? (except TIB848D)

  TIB 848 D sort of underwent a full refurbishment one or two years back. It was on hiatus for quite a while.

  Yah. Due to passengers' complains that the bus is VERY VERY dirty, WLDEP had to refurbish the bus and perm 961, then perm 852.
