MAN 18.320's

Postby Torrens_boi » Wed Jan 26, 2011 7:56 am

You guys will be happy to know, that the weekend just gone, i happend to travel past Wakefield Trucks / MAN on my way out of Adelaide for a day or so.

Upon passing, i noticed 3-4 more brand new MAN Diesel rigids awaiting the finishing touches before transit over there!

I couldnt get any fleet numbers, as i was driving too fast at the 90kmh/ speed limit.

Also off topic, but also 1 more Scania 14.5 Meter is at Scanias awaiting transit to you over there!

Yeah, just more buses to sit around and do nothing really, at this stage the average time between delivery and entry into service is around three months, which is just appalling. It is even longer for the 14.5s
