The model -
this model was issued in late March 2007, however, news of its release
did not come to light until June. It is understood that problems in production
resulted in only about 100 models being issued.

for Kowloon Motor Bus. They purchased the first four chassis, on which
they built their own bodies, each of which differed from each other slightly.
