Should have guessed it would have been that unwatchable piece of crap after seeing ads for it in a shopping center here in QLD...

I like the green. A variation of that to make it a Transperth livery would make the buses more noticeable rather than the majority of silver.

The AoA on 1323 (so you think you can dance) is also up in Brisbane on 1802 (B7RLE, CR228L) Interesting about our one, there is some advertising inside for the show as well, you can't really escape it!
Still waiting for a MAN SL200 to catch to school. Might be waiting a while....

1683 was still running around with that Cavalia AOA this morning.
The AOAs will stay on for a bit afterwards until the next order for a new one comes in at APM Burswood ,for which the bus is taken off traffic for at least half a day for it to be done. Some promotions require the AOA comes straight off when it has finished .(Eg Subway adds)
And the latest to be done to have a new AOA applied is TP1811 with its AOA for Mazda CX-5 seen here down at Fremantle IC.

I think it's pretty pointless for a bus to have an AOA for a car which has been out for some time...

Gee, do you ever wonder how much they actually get paid to put the adverts on the buses versus how much the vinyl costs? and does the operator get the money or does it go to the govt?

Just go to the website of the company/group applying the wrap and you'll generally get the prices for the different sizes and AOA wraps. Off recollection, some years back it was $24k for AOAS in Hobart, but that WAS some years ago. I'd imagine (and don't know for sure) the company selling generally does the application too and would take between 10-20% (as I say I'd imagine). If that's the case approx. $3-4k for selling/applying. The bus company would get the remainder
