The model - announced by ABC Models in late July 2000 was their second liveried example of the 12 metre MCW Metrobus, this time in standard CMB livery. There are two versions of ML22, each with different destinations and quantities. The other version is Model No. 000812.

The bus - ML22 entered service with CMB in June 1983. Upon the demise of CMB, it was transferred to the New World First Bus fleet, being withdrawn in 1999. It was subsequently shipped, with several other MLs, to Australia, whereupon it entered service for Citysightseeing, having been converted to open top.
