I think you can leave AMDEP out. This round of refurbishing, if according to the previous tender, is strictly for Scania and DAF buses only.

Yes, i spotted this bus with white rims at WDL Ave 3 today at 2 plus. I saw it thrice, twice while on 911 and once on 925.
Are the ELBOs included in this refurbishment? Would be interesting if those laid-up buses get a new lease of life.

No lah. ELBOs are going soon. It will be a waste of money to refurbish them, except that only TIB848D did manage to get refurbished 2 yrs ago due to complains that the bus interior is too dirty and dusty.

Lol. KJDEP ppl refurbished the seats and flooring only, but are ELBOs seats, quite nice on TIB838H actully. That time on 184, forgot to take interior pic. The reflooring is actually whole bus, and whole bus smells.

I prefer the old prototype seats.. :(

Enlighten me pls
Are those O405 refurbished/or those earmarked for upgrading marked with a MUP sticker at the bottom left side window near the entrance?!

yep. those refurbished bus have a MUP sign sticked to part of the windscreen.
TIB707C is fitted with new MOBITEC EDS after refurbishment too. Spotted it OFF SERVICE leaving BP Int @ 10.30 plus. The white rims are colgate white, as if newly bought..
-------------------------------
My fren and i took a peek inside the interior of the bus while on TIB710S, and the refurbisment is really the same, esp the wheels and the seats. I didnt spot any 'ice crystals' at the windows of the bus, so i just hope that the A/C is not boorish than TIB562C.
I saw a DAF with white rims like OCs today coming out from Shenton way ter, but from my 36th floor office so details aint sure. It's most likely 970, seems to have orange eds. I reckon its 707C ba, esp its long term mia previously to be another transformer.
