The model - In early July 2018 P&T Model (Diecast) announced two further releases of its MCW Metrobus in Kowloon Motor Bus livery. These two models represent vehicles from the last batch of eight such vehicles delivered in late 1989, which feature a larger destination screen. The second features M87 (DC1019). Being un-licensed products neither carry fleetnames or logos.  

The bus - Kowloon Motor Bus ordered a total of eighty-eight 9.7 metre MCW Metrobuses between 1983 and 1988. The final eight, M81-M88, were delivered in November 1989, and were fitted with the more powerful Cummins L10 engine, producing 280bhp, enabling them to be used on Route 51, KMB's most difficult route.
