kudos SXFilmed at Phibsboro depot IIRC, this is one of 201 buses delivered new to Córas Iompair Éireann between mid-1983 and 1986, all fitted with a Cummins L10-185 engine coupled to a Voith D851 gearbox. This should actually be listed as a GAC as only two KC-class buses (prototype KC1 and KC2) were badged as Bombardiers - GAC had taken full control of the operation and the Shannon plant by the time this bus was under assembly.

RyanTee82 USI know, the W123 was an earlier car. I meant the style of limo with extra length at the C-pillar (and the extra window). Was the car shown here built by a coachbuilder? I've never seen a limousine version of like this of a late 1980s Mercedes. :) Very cool car. 2012-05-05 01:58

RyanTee82 wrote WHOA...Mercedes offered this bodystyle as a W123 Lang-type stretch with the extra length at the C-pillar????? I've never seen this before! Were they built in small numbers?

Sorry, it's a W124, not a W123. Mercedes itself has offered "Lang"-versions, even for the predecessors of the W123, the W114/115, also the previous W110, but they weren't that long. These extra long conversions were made by other coachbuilders.

G-MANN UKSince it's pre-1994 it should be 250E rather E250. Or is the E250 bit something that sixcyl has added erroneously? (he used to pick "default" engine sizes for Mercs). Unfortunately we can't read the plate here (maybe Kazimann noted it while watching the film)

Ingo DENo, Mercman93, definetely not a K 70. The K 70 bigger and always 4-door.

It's for sure a 1977/78 VW Derby, to recognize by the chrome-bumpers. Only in the first year of the Derby it had them. It's also not a Polo Classic, because this name was used years later for the sedan-version of the next-generation of the Polo, the 86 C (which was called Derby, too for the first time).

Firebird86 USI learned something new today, :) Thank you Gag, 2007-08-09 17:05
antp BE... so what about that other one? Should it be renamed to just "Bombardier"? 2007-08-09 14:12
Gag Halfrunt UKBombardier is a Canadian company, but it built these buses in Ireland to a design by a West German consultancy.
Quote In 1977, CIE contacted FFG in Hamburg with the request to design a standard bus family. FFG, originally a division of the Hamburg public transport company, had, among others, designed the German standard bus. FFG built several prototypes: a 53 seat dual purpose bus in 1978 (V1), a 45 seat double decker in 1981 (KD1), a 35 seat dual-door city bus in 1981 (KC1), a minibus in 1981, and two 47 seat school buses in 1983 and 1984 (KS1 and KS2). With the exception of the minibus, all these models would be built in Ireland between 1981 and 1986.

CIE looked for a partner to build these buses in Ireland, which was found in AMG (American Motors General) in the US. A factory in Shannon was leased, but AMG pulled out of the deal before starting production. Finally, an agreement was reached with Bombardier in Canada and the General Automotive Company (GAC). Bombardier was expanding rapidly and saw the Irish investment as an opportunity to get a foothold in Europe. Bombardier (Ireland) was created and production finally started in Shannon in 1981. However, problems soon arose as CIE did not need (or had the funds to buy) the 250 buses per year that the factory needed to produce to be profitable. Bombardier already withdrew in 1983, leaving GAC as the only partner. An attempt was made to find an export market and a prototype rural bus was delivered to United in the UK in 1985, but no orders materialized. GAC withdrew the same year, and the plant was closed in 1986, after CIE finished the last buses itself.

Firebird86 USI thought Bombardier was a Canadian Co? 2007-08-09 06:24
Gag Halfrunt UKI'd say Ireland for the Bombardier because it was made in Ireland and built exclusively for CIE (the Irish government transport company). 2007-08-09 00:10
antp BEOK so I let Sixcyl create the page for the Atlantean, as I suppose that it must have a role (at least 2 stars?)

What country origin should be chosen for that bus model? Canada, Ireland, ... ?

Gag Halfrunt UKThe Atlantean is the interior shot (the thumbnail, on Imageshack). The Bombardier is the one in the main picture (/images/121/306.jpg) -- the back of the bus seen from inside the depot.
