Should have guessed it would have been that unwatchable piece of crap after seeing ads for it in a shopping center here in QLD...Off The Rails wrote:So you think you can dance.

Re: AOAs in Perth
The last of the Cavilia AOAs to be captured before the seasons end (if it hasn't allready)is TP1745 seen in lansdale today.
All so seen about today by me was TP 1347 in a new AOA in green ,but it was too fast down Beaufort st on a 950 to make out what the Ad was, but has been identified in the posts above thou. The whole World is going to "HELL" And I'm driving the Bus!

Re: AOAs in Perth
Well done for getting 1347.
The horse has bolted from 2318 & it is out on the town tonight sporting a new AOA for an old rainy day friend.

Re: AOAs in Perth
I like the green. A variation of that to make it a Transperth livery would make the buses more noticeable rather than the majority of silver.

Re: AOAs in Perth
The AoA on 1323 (so you think you can dance) is also up in Brisbane on 1802 (B7RLE, CR228L) Interesting about our one, there is some advertising inside for the show as well, you can't really escape it!
Still waiting for a MAN SL200 to catch to school. Might be waiting a while....

Re: AOAs in Perth
The AOAs will stay on for a bit afterwards until the next order for a new one comes in at APM Burswood ,for which the bus is taken off traffic for at least half a day for it to be done. Some promotions require the AOA comes straight off when it has finished .(Eg Subway adds)1683 was still running around with that Cavalia AOA this morning.
And the latest to be done to have a new AOA applied is TP1811 with its AOA for Mazda CX-5 seen here down at Fremantle IC.

Re: AOAs in Perth
I think it's pretty pointless for a bus to have an AOA for a car which has been out for some time...
Great shots HFB!

Re: AOAs in Perth
Gee, do you ever wonder how much they actually get paid to put the adverts on the buses versus how much the vinyl costs? and does the operator get the money or does it go to the govt?
As for me, give me liberty, or give me death!

Re: AOAs in Perth
Just go to the website of the company/group applying the wrap and you'll generally get the prices for the different sizes and AOA wraps. Off recollection, some years back it was $24k for AOAS in Hobart, but that WAS some years ago. I'd imagine (and don't know for sure) the company selling generally does the application too and would take between 10-20% (as I say I'd imagine). If that's the case approx. $3-4k for selling/applying.
