  If the kids are sent to EUROPE, they will just stand and stare coz most of EUROPE is using MAN, Citaros in many versions
  MAN: 2, 3 axle, bendy, Hybrid, CNG
  Citaros: 2,3 axle, bendy, CNG, Hybrid, extra short version
  Whats there to wonder about an outdated version of citaro going to which depot?!
  The SG bus stop information display in the bus is pathetic

  Do remember that citaros are not on sale anymore.Most they can purchase is 150 Citaros.

  A Citaro is just a bus. A WAB bus. A bus that brings me from one point to the other in relative comfort is good enough.

  Citaros are still coming in. What's the problem in WAITING?

  Anybody laughed so far?Only an idiot like you.

  Another reasons i want citaro because is that i stay in AMDEP area and my area is flooded with KUBS.To be exact from the lastest info i got,AMDEP has around 550 KUBS.Got the info from wiki or 1 of the posts which is expired.and 550 KUBS is half the KUBS.

  One reason why AMDEP (SBST) took in the early batch of Citaros was mainly for 138, due to the fact that 138 needs an upgrade to new WABs but however K230UBs unable to be deployed for whatever reason. 

  Another reason I believe could be the AMDEP BC preferences over the Merc buses, as they might be used to the Merc 0405s for many years before they were deregistered.

  you are right about the first point, but less of an effect on the 2nd point though we cant rule that out completely.

  the reason why K230s are unable to be deployed is cos of the hump at the zoo.

  So SBS and SMRT should get 800 more Citaros they are suitable for all the roads not like Scania!!!

  You have not seen the newest Scania buses yet...
  By the conditions now, SBST and SMRT will NOT buy any single more citaros from now on since it is expired. They will explore and SBST will be due to buy a Double Decker while SMRT, with it's new depot coming soon, probably explores and buy new bendys. And it WILL NOT be a citaro. They have topped their order at 51. 
  
  Scanias K230UBs replaces
  Scania N113CRB and Mercedes O405s NAC, OAC and CAC.
  Mercedes Citaro replaces
  Volvo B10M MkIII and Nissan Diesel U31RCN [ Half ].
  
  SBST will need to replace the deregistering Volvo Olympians,
  SMRT will need to replace the deregistering Scania L113CRLs.
  
  SMRT already mentioned that they will not buy citaros since SBST ordered.
  
  So, stop hoping for citaros, dudes. If you are a fan, snap millions of photos of it and eventually you will get bored.
  
  And how you know ''suitable''???
  Your stupid citaro already made 67 people hate it.
  Now how many more?
  Probably 3000 by next year.
  
  And buy so many citaros for what?
  You think flooding SG with citaro nice is it?
  Get lost to Europe la!
  There tons of citaro there ready to take photo with you.
  Including 1 MRT bus on land. [ But is China one ]
  Like what SBS6078M mentioned, citaros are NO LONGER SALE.
  Even if they want citaros, at most they wil buy 150 more.
  But the Volvo B10M MkIIIs only have 300.
  Citaros order also stopped at 300.
  So, citaros IS confirmed to be stopped at 300.

  Yes I want more CREEPY Scania KUB gemilang.

  I look forward the Citaro 3 in SBST fleet but not Citaro Gs. No more bendies. 

  Not much choices of full low floor bus, unless SBST looks into Irisbus Citelis or MAN Lioncity. MAN A22 is worse than Citaro and Volvo B9TL.

  No, not Citaro or Scania. The 800 new buses will be King Long or Yutong or other China brands since our govt likes PRC so much!
