Have you ever wanted to own a bus? Now's your chance

Dublin Bus is selling a fleet of vehicles.

IS YOUR THREE-DOOR just not roomy enough?

Dublin Bus may have the solution for you.

The company is selling 71* vehicles on Done Deal, due to fleet replacement.

Most of the buses boast features such as “a super-low floor”, a powered wheelchair ramp, large luggage racks, and ‘Fogmaker’ fire suppression equipment.

Also, tyres ARE included.

Another benefit is the fact that ‘shotgun’ will never again be an issue.

Dublin Bus is engaging in an active procurement process as part of our fleet replacement programme. This is an annual programme which involves replacing older buses in our fleet to ensure service reliability, to keep maintenance costs to a minimum and also so Dublin Bus can avail of technological advancements to ensure high accessibility standards.

Bidders may put in an offer on one, some or all of the vehicles. All bids must be placed before 5pm on Monday, 21 July.

More information on the buses is available here.

The original post had a figure of 164 but Dublin Bus has since clarified it is 71 buses.
