Thank you for this nice video! This reminds me to my childhood so much. Abot 30 years ago, the German brands Mercedes and MAN offered their standard city buses with exact the same gearbox and I swear, it sounds like this one. Gear 1, 2, 3 and 5 sounds honestly like in the MAN NG 272 where I loved to ride with. But the engine was louder and sounds more aggressive like in the shown bus.

742...?

@@jacksuperclyde shown in this video, czcams.com/video/gE1QmyXq8sA/video.html it was a surf side bus with a extremely loud ZF, but after it was filmed they toned it down a lot and made it more boring, I was just saying that it’s the new version of it

Ahhh, makes sense! Yes 472 was once a nice sounding unit before the bit of a mechanical "enhancement".
