They sound like the Hispano and Volgren 0405 versions in sg

@stopbeforeyoudrop the shorter 1st gear is probably due to the lock up gear, this one has a lock up gear at the 3rd gear, while the one you mentioned has a lock up gear at the 2nd one

This bus is different to the O405NH's around my house. They are run by panorama coaches and have a much shorter 1st gear. Also it has a Volgren body.

@TangaraG33 Those O495NH buses can only do up to 97kph on the Freeway, and I don't think they're speed limited. Newer Scania buses probably can do more than 100kph if they're not equppied with a speed limiting device.

I love the fact of how effortless the O405NH's have to work with a ZF Gearbox. The Voith ones in Perth are always screaming their heads off and getting nowhere

This beast sounds awesome
