    Check List - buses that we don't have current details for The main lists on our website show the details of the many thousands of open top buses that currently exist throughout the world, and those that are listed as either scrapped or for scrap. However, there are a number of buses in our database that we don’t have current details for, that could still exist or have been scrapped. The buses listed on this page are those that we need to confirm the location and status of. These buses do not appear on any of our other lists, so if you're looking for a particular vehicle, it could be here.

  • Ladies and Gentlemen, and Representatives of the Media
    Press release MAN Nutzfahrzeuge Gruppe ______________________________________________________________________________ 1 Ladies and gentlemen, and representatives of the media, Welcome to MAN at the IAA Commercial Vehicles 2008 in Hanover. At this, the world's biggest commercial vehicle exhibition, we'd like to present you our current range of products and wide selection of services. MAN offers the most modern choice of commercial vehicles in all weight categories. We received due recognition of this by winning the "Truck of the Year Award 2008" for our heavyweight trucks of the TGX and TGS series. Their high-gloss radiator grille has become a distinguishing element in goods transport on the roads of many countries. Here in Hanover we're showing for the first time the re-engineered TGL and TGM series, which have also taken on the distinctive look of their big brothers. TGL and TGM also come newly equipped for more safety, comfort and convenience – examples are the electronic stability program (ESP) and the multifunction steering wheel. A very special highlight at the MAN show booth in hall 12 are our new EGR engines for Euro 5. Right on time for introduction, MAN fulfils its promise to its international clientele of meeting the strict standard without any additive and elaborate exhaust after-treatment. What pleases me in particular is that these engineering masterpieces not only better the exhaust standard, but also show such a high level of efficiency and performance in doing it. Faced with climbing prices for diesel, I'm sure this is good news for our customers. Press release MAN Nutzfahrzeuge Gruppe ______________________________________________________________________________ 2 Proof of our successful focus on efficiency in transport, for the benefit of customers and our environment, can be found in further innovations that we're presenting at the IAA.

  • 50 Years of the NEOPLAN Skyliner: on Tour with the Kellys
    50 years of the NEOPLAN Skyliner: Munich, 13.10.2017 On tour with the Kellys When the Kelly Family finally got their big break in 1994, they had already been making music for two decades, performing in concerts all over Europe. Previously, they spent their journey MAN Truck & Bus Dachauer Straße 667 time in spartan double-decker London buses – with their D-80995 Munich success, they switched to an articulated NEOPLAN Skyliner. • Articulated NEOPLAN Skyliner – jumbo-tour bus since Should any questions arise, please contact: 1996 Anne Katrin Wieser • 18 metres long with room to sleep 28 Phone: +49 89 1580-2001 [email protected] • Club room and motorbike bay in the rear segment www.mantruckandbus.com/press By the end of the 1990s, the Kelly Family’s tour bus was as big as they themselves were in Germany. The troupe, made up of members of a musical extended family, toured Europe in an unmissable NEOPLAN Jumbocruiser Type N 138/4. The articulated Skyliner – 18 metres long, four metres high, two-and-a-half metres wide, and weighing 18 tonnes in total – was already pushing the limits of what was allowed even when it originally presented at the IAA trade show in 1975. Customers were able to choose between three layout variants for the lower deck of the rear segment: bar/toilet/luggage compartment, club room/toilet/luggage compartment, or just an extended luggage compartment. In 1996, Joey Kelly bought the bus (with the club room layout) directly from its first owner, a tour operator in Dortmund. Of the 11 that were ever built, Kelly’s bus was number two.
