http://buses.sgforums.com/forums/1279/topics/329035 en-US 60 <p>I recommend TIB749G on S966. There is a slight malfunction in the gear box, likely a gear slip and when it changes gears, it would be very loud. No speed limiter for that bus too and that bus is fast, going up to 70 kmh at times.</p> <p>Also, SBS8030L is also recommended. The interior is good especially the back seats. Some say the exterior is nice while others don't. I personally think that the exterior is good bodywork except for the dent on the bumper.......</p> Mon, 24 Nov 2008 23:02:59 +0800 buses.sgforums.com:1279:329035:8605243 Orange-mush http://buses.sgforums.com/forums/1279/topics/329035 <blockquote> <div class="quote_from">Originally posted by lianamaster:</div> <div class="quote_body"> <p>Is that the bus of the current 198?</p> </div> </blockquote> <p><br /> ya</p> Mon, 24 Nov 2008 19:25:51 +0800 buses.sgforums.com:1279:329035:8604319 JaSoNhSu92 http://buses.sgforums.com/forums/1279/topics/329035 <blockquote> <div class="quote_from">Originally posted by JaSoNhSu92:</div> <div class="quote_body"> <p>i recommend SBS7365C, nice&nbsp;door closing chime is music to our ears&nbsp;and has a quiet engine.</p> </div> </blockquote> <p>Is that the bus of the current 198?</p> Mon, 24 Nov 2008 17:29:27 +0800 buses.sgforums.com:1279:329035:8604051 lianamaster http://buses.sgforums.com/forums/1279/topics/329035 <p>i recommend SBS7365C, nice&nbsp;door closing chime is music to our ears&nbsp;and has a quiet engine.</p> Sun, 23 Nov 2008 23:17:57 +0800 buses.sgforums.com:1279:329035:8601528 JaSoNhSu92 http://buses.sgforums.com/forums/1279/topics/329035 <blockquote> <div class="quote_from">Originally posted by Raraken:</div> <div class="quote_body"> <p>I recommend TIB1001Z.
