Buses at Adelaide airport.

On my recent trip to Perth I was waylaid in Adelaide for two days (due to a wife that fell ill on the Sydney-Perth flight. Very embarrassing but she has made a full recovery!). I was wondering if anyone had a bit more information on the buses in the photo, that I took from the concourse at Adelaide airport (I know that the centre one is a CAT service bus from Perth) Thanks!

I quick check of the fleet lists reveals that the larger one on our left is a Custom CB30 bodied MAN 15.220 which was transferred from Sydney a few years ago. And the one of our right is an Ansair bodied MAN 10.155 originally from Brisbane City Council. They usually use it on the long term car park shuttles, hence the big P on the back.

Alright, I think I know what they are.
From Left to Right:
A MAN 15.220(?), bodied by Custom Coaches, CB30(?)
A Scaina DAB Midcity Series 2 0860S-022, bodied by DABS
A MAN 11.220, bodied by Ansair, Orana(ex. Sydney Buses),
OR A MAN 10.155 HOCL, bodied by Ansair, Orana(ex. Brisbane City Council)

Cheers!

The one on the right is defs a 10.155 with an Allison AT-545. Slowest moving thing I've ever seen, even moreso than a certain Citelis or even Dennis Darts...

Leigh has already stated via the Fleetlists that the one on the right, further from camera, is an Ansair bodied MAN 10.155 originally from Brisbane City Council.

Driving a DAB from Adelaide to Perth how many years would you need for the drive.
