The model - An unexpected release in Hong Kong in late October 1999, and despite initial reports that this was a Hong Kong release only, small quantities became available in the UK at the end of January 2000

The bus - still not totally happy with its rear-engined buses, China Motor Bus took delivery of 167 front-engined Leyland Victory Mk2s between 1979 and 1982. These featured Alexander 'CB' bodywork with seating in a 3+2 layout, with the exception of the final batch of 20, which were fitted with Metsec bodies.
