Great engine sound for a bus comimg up to be if not already 24 years old, the earlier mk2 never really had such a screaming retarder as the later mk2a's did
Oh no a whingy bus. A lot of them round manchester were not known for screaming and the engine and gearbox whine noise never blended in well. if you want a good hill climbing bus the scania L94 does much better even when over crowded. The voith reatrder whistle is misisng!
If this bus was fitted with Cummins LTA10 as those were found in Hong Kong then it would be a race car lol

That's some heavy braking at 2:45 - the bus barely gets chance to change down gear as it slows! :)

Really gets going when it goes down that hill! You must have expected that, it is worth waiting for and watching. Not much scream for a Metrobus.
