I lost all sympathy for mine after being stuck on the Hume in feb this year for 19 hrs with a luckily 2 bottles of water and no food.:angrylock:

I drive a M A N and what a P,O,S it is and even if it has has a yankie heart and soul it is the electric`s that are more likely to fail sorry to say ;)

My experience is the other way round!

We have Scania P400(somethings) and MAN TGS 440's and the MANs are awesome. Smooth as silk and quite as a Roller!
Have no idea on reliability tho.
OTOH, the Kenny's and Argosy's at my other work a while back were dreadful things by comparison!

Earlier this week, I was asked to ferry a trailer to another depot, but using the Western Star(conventional) they have in the yard.
That was it, not to drive the W for the day, just this one shuttle job, then get back and into the normal routine for the day.
Now that was one monumental P.O.S! For a new truck, has to be the worst I've ever driven.

Good luck with the mobile home .. however it turns out :thumbsup:

We already have two in the fleet one runs down south and the other runs north to your end of the world and dam good comfortable reliable trucks they are:cool:
Mate i`ve done my time running with the idiots of the night on Sesame st ;)
So don`t care much for the crap that happens along there or the cowboys:angel:
Just something comfortable reliable and power to spare would be nice ;) Id like it but i dont think it will happen , I was only dreaming out aloud:angel:

Been removing sign writing today, my fingers are rather sensitive now.:(

You only needed to remove one "e" and two "S"'s.

Then it would become a "crisp coach". :p

Nice looking unit Ian, same colour as mine was too ;)


Does it have a full flat floor, and can I see the rear end raised (floor) ?

Sunken aisle Marcus, I can stand in the centre. There is a bit of ducting under the back row of seats, it shouldn't interfere with my plans. There will be a queen size bed covering all that guff.
I will have to sink the shower into the bins, forward of the drive.

Old Bus Photos ? Guy GS

Strewth Laurie, that bus is older than me! :o
It looks a bit small and slow. If I drove to Perth, from here, it'd be time to pay the rego again when I got there . ;)
