The model
- the livery featured on this model was never applied to the Dennis
Condors of China Motor Bus, in fact, only six of the final batch of Volvo Olympians, delivered in 1998,
received
this silver and blue livery.
The
model comes in the standard green 'Hong Kong Wonders' box and the
limited edition certificate takes the form of a postcard, with an image
of the Central Bus Terminus and Vehicular Ferry dated 1953 on one side
and the certificate on the other. The rear light clusters are supplied
for the purchaser to affix and also included are two spare tyres, two
driving mirrors and a bus stop.
The manufacturers adhesive label on the box dates its release as 1998.
The bus
- the China Motor Bus 'DA' class entered service between 1990 and 1997.
It consists of 92 vehicles, with DA1-DA56 featuring small top sliding
windows,
similar to UK vehicles, the windows being rubber mounted. DA57-82 have
no opening windows, these still being rubber mounted, whilst the final
batch, DA83-DA92, have bonded glazing. DA53 entered service in October
1993.
