A simple search on fleetlists came up with this:

TV 6708 Volvo B12B 2552 Autobus - 8/03 C48DT PrMS
ex TV 3719 11/11/11; ex Hawkesford's International Pty Ltd, Enfield (56) TV 3719 via Auction 28/10/11; ex (SA) WXX 145.

This shot taken last week on the Gold Coast.

This is apparently out on rail this week? I haven't added it to the fleet list as I am not sure of its new TV plate.

Mr 8 Speed I still reacon the 2 Axle TV479 Scania is a good looking unit- Saw it coming down Ousley a week or so ago with a rather Tall looking driver with a Moe Behind the Wheel and it looked a classy unit.
