New Mercedes 500 has arrived

November the 14th saw the arrival of two new coaches one a MAN 15 280 (coach 79) the other being the Mercedes 500 (coach 80) the first of this model to arrive in New Zealand.

Coach 79 turned many heads when she arrived at Tauranga wharf on a gloriously sunny November 14th. Decked out in the new Connections blue livery which matched the clear blue Bay of Plenty sky she was a real stunner.

Coach 79 had little time to recover from the sea journey she was out working in two days.

Coach 80 arrived on the 14th, her cabin mates being a crane and a truck (the Beauty and the Beasts).

 

Garry is the driver for 
coach 80 and he and Dave 
are impressed with her 
luxuriousness and superb 
road handling. 

 

She never makes a sound and moves effortlessly through crowded city streets while passengers can relax and enjoy an unobstructed view through wide panoramic windows of the local scenery.

All seats have quality leather headrests and seat belts. The aisle is wide and easy to negotiate.

In keeping to our high safety standard the Mercedes 500 is fitted with a comprehensive first aid kit which is easily accessed in a drop down hatch above the driver. A display system, the same as used in airliners, illuminates to show toilet occupancy.

With Garry comfortably in the drivers seat Coach 80 has started on her travels throughout NewZealand showing international visitors the most beautiful sights in the safest and most comfortable of environments - the Mercedes 500.
