SOLVED: si_404 - Neoplan - N 8012-ÜSTRA - 1992

An interesting design.
Make, type and year of manufacture would be sufficient for a puzzle point.

Yes, it is a Neoplan from the Mic series, but not an N8008. Locked for you.

Yes, it is an N2012, this can be seen from the number of windows. Now only the year of manufacture is missing.

preproduction model was from 1986 and serial production lasts from 1990 to 1996
is this the one from 1986?

Not 1986, it's a series model.

what's the point of specifying a specific year of manufacture?
is this a special one?
according to data from the internet, the bus was produced from 1990 to 1996

It is not a special specimen. But the task is to identify exactly this bus. I'll show a part of the number plate, then it might be easier.

Used for an interesting/unique purpose, or simply public transportation?

You have got is  :applause: The puzzle photo is from 1992, still without a company number. But you have narrowed down the period precisely enough. Thanks for the colour photo.
This is your next point.
