Like 1688 and 2888 ?

I think they are great buses especially the Scania 2888 . Why was the bus based at hougang south depot remains a mystery to me . But anyway , I sat that bus a few times , the engines are much smoother and better then the old Scania N113 buses . If only SBS had 50 over of those buses to replace the old scania buses .

TIBS do have a few demonstrator buses right ? I am not too sure which one , can someone help regarding TIBs buses ?

Cheers

Haha not a problem .

If possibile , I like to buy an old aircraft and convert the aircraft into a home probably in Australia . Singapore is too small and land is expensive !!! .

1688 is quite a good bus! Comparing with other Volvos SBST has, 1688 can be considered as the best. Its engine is smooth, and the interior is really nice.

I still prefer 2888, I think that 1688's rear is simply too hot to bear for a new bus.
