Scriv 168 Posted November 28, 2020 Report Share Posted November 28, 2020 For some reason I cannot imagine an advert like that being made these days. As for those buses; I remember when they first came out, incredibly noisy, gearchanges jerked standing passengers of their feet, and they rattled worse than the old Atlanteans after few months because they were so shoddily built.

denshaw 2,871 Posted November 28, 2020 Report Share Posted November 28, 2020 NCT had them mostly on central area, I think they were 6.6 litre with a turbo, they were very light on the steering. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Pianoman 1,532 Posted November 28, 2020 Report Share Posted November 28, 2020 Horrid things. Never liked driving them or riding on them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Deepdene Boy 642 Posted November 28, 2020 Report Share Posted November 28, 2020 The engines were 8.2 litre (510 cubic inches) turbo charged. They suffered with being too light on the front end, which caused understeer and braking problems on wet or icy roads. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
