I can't confirm this, but it wouldn't surprise me, they probably have far to many ADL 200 (originally 350 buses in service), I assume a lot of the route they have held onto are going to be upgrade to double deckers. I suspect NZ Bus will need to downsize/change their fleet a fair bit over the next 24 months. I think i read somewhere pavlovich will require 70 more buses in the next couple of months, which they will require ave age of no more than 10 years, so if they buying second hands it would figure that they would be NZ buses ADL's

I feel bit sorry for the incumbents bus companies in both Auckland and wellington, as the PTOM system creates has created a lot of changes. Which overall is probably for the better, but must have been a bit hard on fleet management for the exiting companies during the last 5 years or so.
