Just down the road from the depot, Brazilian built Mercedes LO814 with Custom bodywork, 18 (MO9615), was undergoing some bodywork repair after a minor accident. The 29 seater dates from 1996, but was replaced by a Mercedes O815 with Custom CB20 bodywork in 2005. It has taken 18's registration, and probably the fleetnumber too. The original MO9615 is now thought to have gone to Tasmania. Trax has modelled 18 in their Trux series, as seen below.
