Svc964/169 will often gets MAN cameo(3xx series), so don't suspect any perm for now.SMB253Y/SMB254U have WAB stickers at doors, suspecting it to perm certain svc and not spare.
SMB300U, SMB302P and SMB305G have been doing 169 for a few days on the same block but we'll see after a few weeks... :)

Yes. 290 291 are perm. On Sunday, I spotted 727U 728S 429E 290P 479K, followed by a few AMDEP then 291L, followed by AMDEP. Either 1 extra AM/PM for all days for WLDEP side, or this replaces one of the weekend perms.

Not really. There are alot of buses laying as SP with ads on.
Even though 174S has that seafood paradise @ Senja/cashew CC ad, I still don't find it plausible with why it got deployed. Some of them are valid examples why SMRT doesn't care about buses with advertisements sticking on a service, They still stayed SP.
TIB791H has the Titanic exhibition ad when it was on 960 formerly but it still ran around on different services as SP before sticking on 178 without removing the ads, but 2 months later 791H is back on 960 with the ad still on.
Remember the time where 782J permed AMDEP 106 from AM 169 when it was extended to SWT? They still left the prudential ad even though it had expired but they still can't be bothered to tear it down, It was after sometime it was being replaced by some LG ad later on.
Still remember 527E that did 854 before it got deployed to 969 to replace 783G on 969 in 2010? That tiger beer ad was still on and wasn't removed when it was deployed to 854, Subsequently when 527E went back to do 969 replacing 783G on 969, They still can't be bothered to remove the ad.
There is a very big difference as to how SMRT and SBST's deployments work. AMDEP ones the deployment system is still there, WLDEP's deployment is absolutely rubbish, KJDEP I more or less am neutral towards it. SBST wise, I don't think they will let a bus with ads run around as SP, can anyone help me regarding this?

TIB527E left 854 and went over to replace TIB782J/TIB783G on 969 when the 2 CACs got transferred to WLDEP. 854 got SMB19H for a short period of time before the Yutong demonstrator SMB135E came in.
Somehow the 2 CACs got transferred back to AMDEP and they made their way back to 969. TIB527E then kept running around and would always made a comeback on 854 especially when SMB135E went MIA for whatever reasons.
When 106 got fleet add due to route extension, the 2 CACs from 969 went over to 106 and TIB527E went back to 969.

It is possible... They didn't remove the ad for 527E simply because the contract did not expire.

527E replaced 783G. 782J went to WLDEP when 851 had OCs, and was deployed on 858.
In September 2009, when 119C - 122S were transferred from AMDEP to WLDEP, WLDEP exchanged 768B from 857, 782J from 858, 783G from 969 and 788T from 177.
782J was in no way a 969 bus. It was a SP. 788T 768B were also SP. Only 783G was deployed back to 969.
When 106 had the fleet additions, these 4 CAC Merc were added to the fleet.

482A and 534J's ad is expired.

Hardly. SMRT style deployments hardly follow SBST ones in fact.
Even if 527E's ad wasn't expired at that time it would still have been bouncing around on other (AM) services as SP. 426M's BO ad I'm still surprised it is still not expired as of yet.

782J went SP for a while, before heading to 169, replacing 813D. (1Q 2010)
783G, like 782J went SP before heading to 969 replacing 527E until sometime march when 135E came in and again there goes 527E.
