They were purchased in early 2012 and imported in 2012.

Thanks for that info Burrumbus.

That is interesting.


So that means they had no problems with ADRs in VIC?

These buses were all pre 1989 so would have been plated with the ADRs from their year of manufacture? (not 2012)?

Im wondering if thats the case in NSW.

Is anybody familiar with this please?

I am totally confused with what I read in govt rules & regulations and also what I am told by different sources.

Any info could be helpful.

Thanks all.
