BUSWEEK 2: EP3 Mt Gravatt MAN 19.320 (Custom CB80)

With the popularity of the last #BUSWEEK series, it was time to do another one!
Here we have an MAN 19.320 with Custom Coaches CB80 bodywork, operated by Mt Gravatt Bus Service. Mt Gravatt have two of these buses in their fleet, named Des and Charlie, along with two MAN 18.320's which look similar, but are a fair bit older, named Ben and Dan. Since it took a while for the CB80 to gain popularity in Queensland, these buses were part of only a small number of the type until Park Ridge and Westside got their CB80's.

Make sure to follow the Busweek series througout the week and tune in tomorrow for another bus review!

Just had a ride on Mt Gravatt 19.320 a couple of days ago, and I have to say the ride comfort on MAN 19.320 must be the best one in Australia in recent years. They are softer than Volvo B8's family, SCANIA K-series and more stable than some Chinese manufacturers. They are powerful but quiet inside, which is much better than the SCANIA K-series, which vibrate a lot when idling. From inside, the MAN 19.320 is even quieter than the Mercedes O500LE Euro 6 when harshly accelerating.

Iv'e never seen those stop buttons before! and I have not been on a CB80 for a long time. Adelaide has loads of them!
