  The figure 90 is just an insider info but the production batch is real.I believe its SMRT who bought the buses not LTA.

  I heard that the KMB MAN uses the same door closing chime as SMRT do?

  Yes. KMB AMNE1 uses the same Bus Stopping & Door closing chimes as fitted by GML... The sign is customised with chinese characters but still the same acrylic plastic...

  According to sources from yesterday's A95 tour in HK, NLB's A95 are equipped with the lesser D2066 LUH-32 320hp engine instead of the 360hp LUH-33.

  It's noted that the 2nd unit is SMB5889E. With such rego, it brings the rumoured missing prototype even closer to what seems to be true... Hope it's not ND323F...

  - Fitted with treeguards
  - Revised livery
  - Silver rims changed to Alcoa rims; tag axle without rimguards
