Here we go... I designed this Mercedes ARA 0305 which is based upon the one found under the 'Auckland's Yellow' thread (without the graffiti :lol: ). This has been designed from scratch so please let me know if it needs to be altered in any way

Are you sure, I'd imagine such windows would be rather heavy and completely non-transparent... :wink:

No, only Mercedes 0305's 16-19 with the NZMB Bodywork had a full set of top window hoppers.

The Mercedes 0305's 7-9 with the Hawke bodywork were identical to the SL200's of the Ara.

Hi there guys, I'm just loving this Message thread at the moment!!! There is so much talent out there in terms of Artwork & design. Now I decided to add a little flair to my favourite City.
Just imagine if New Plymouth City Council had kept their buses. And they had followed everyone elses trend & bought designline bodied Man 12.223's I think they would have looked like this. Please note, I have used the updated New Plymouth District Council Logos for this one.

Enjoy! :mrgreen:
