The model - news of this model was released on this site on 18th March 2004. It is a fictitious model, commissioned by Brother Co. to promote their new MFC 8820D 'All-in-One' printer, scanner, copier and fax, although the all-over advertising livery is genuine. This model is on Route 112 to North Point, registration number is BR328, item number NPHK112. This model is not for general release, and was issued to Brother dealers in Hong Kong and Japan. Small quantities of this model were been made available in Hong Kong. No limited edition certificate is provided.

The bus - as mentioned previously, the model is based on a fictitious bus, however, two KMB vehicles received the eye-catching advertising livery in March 2004, namely Duple-Metsec bodied Trident ATR213 and Volvo Olympian AV338 (see photographs below).
