Yes. TIBS is selling off Dennis Lance 245 and Scania L113CRL. New Scania buses would be brought in by TIBS, probably by next year.Originally posted by alantanchunshyan:is tibs really selling off dennis lance 245 and scanis 113?(i seen from tibs website that tibs is selling off dennis lance 245 and scania 113.) -
Wait, Scania L113CRLs with ALX Strider body are confirmed to be staying.Originally posted by SBS9816E:Yes. TIBS is selling off Dennis Lance 245 and Scania L113CRL. New Scania buses would be brought in by TIBS, probably by next year. -
i think tibs should sell off daf buses too because it seems this bus model unpopular with public.
-
Why is it unpopular? I hope it is not due to the unique-in-Singapore Setanta bodywork.Originally posted by alantanchunshyan:i think tibs should sell off daf buses too because it seems this bus model unpopular with public. -
Scania L113CRL with Elbo body is to be sold off ?Originally posted by SBS9818A:Wait, Scania L113CRLs with ALX Strider body are confirmed to be staying. -
The ELBO bodied Scanias ain't up for sales before. Only the L113 WA bodied were up for sales.Originally posted by Airbus330Captain:Scania L113CRL with Elbo body is to be sold off ?
I am still waiting for Tibs to update the Tibs Motors website. -
partly due to the shape i guess.Originally posted by off_service:Why is it unpopular? I hope it is not due to the unique-in-Singapore Setanta bodywork. -
One, the bodywork looks plain ugly, and it is slow to boot. AFAIK, A330Captain, the Elbo-bodied L113CRLs were NEVER put up for sale.Originally posted by off_service:Why is it unpopular? I hope it is not due to the unique-in-Singapore Setanta bodywork. -

I call the bodywork UNIQUE, which is a neutral word compared to plain ugly.... Whats more, the VanHool Body also has one that looks a lot like the Sentanta, its found in Changi Airport as SATS24.

Secondly, its NOT slow....there are DAFs like 712 and 719 that can outrun a 0405. Now, what if i said that all Uk Lance 245s are slow? I have 1015, 1014,1013,1012,1010,1009,1008 and more...... -

Give me a comfortable bus (even UD if it is in good condition) over a fast bus like Lances or Scanias (which I classified as "not comfy" ) any day.Originally posted by SBS9818A:Don't forget my darling 1007H can overtake an SBST O405 and other TIBS O405s.

Can't agree with you more that the body is unique and not "plain ugly".

Plain ugly is the more politically-correct term. Unique is an understatement.Originally posted by off_service:Can't agree with you more that the body is unique and not "plain ugly". -
I don't know about you, but after seeing DAFs for so many years, I feel that the design is rather unique, maybe being the one and only in Asia and one of the few buses in the world to use the Setanta bodywork.Originally posted by SBS9818A:Plain ugly is the more politically-correct term.

i rather scania be sold than dennis lance as i find dennis lance 245 unique .it has different interior than most of the tibs bus models .also the seats differ from most of other bus models.has somewaht grey with strips instead of usual green with some patterns.

It is precisely the fact it looks so markedly different that TIBS intend to sell them, besides other reasons.Originally posted by alantanchunshyan:i rather scania be sold than dennis lance as i find dennis lance 245 unique .it has different interior than most of the tibs bus models .also the seats differ from most of other bus models.has somewaht grey with strips instead of usual green with some patterns. -

Won't happen very soon, unfortunately. Hopefully I "siam" out of this country and don't see those 50 pieces of crud anymore. And come back once they are driven into the sea off Benjamin Sheares Bridge.Originally posted by Airbus330Captain:I am counting down the days of SBST selling the scania n113crb . Who is with me ?
