Very surprise that there is a photo of Citybus 1575
I think there is no information about 1575 after shipping to New Zealand.
Do anyone knows the chassis no. of those Ex-HK Stagecoach B10M?
...
what is meant by "Leyland Tiger with Leyland Lynx body assembly by Coachwork International"??? U mean this is a leyland Tiger chassis reaseembled with a body from a Leyland Lynx? If yes, why uses an old bus body for a high-floor chassis coach? thanks!

When the Tiger was built, the Lynxes were in production too, there are few Leyland lyxnes didnt use the bodywork manufactured by Leyland, one left hand drive went to Volvo, 10 with Alexander body for Belfast and two went to Australia with Pressed Metal body work and intended for Urban Transit Auothity (UTA, which is Sydney Buses, STA by now). So few Leyland Lynx body are left in Leyland's factory.
The reason of why this Tiger use the Lynx bodywork, I have no idea, as far as I know the bus was built 1988, and was used for the Commenwealth Game when it was held in NZ during that time.
