Only a few details separate this bus from being the 280.26 version from the first series delivered to Warsaw in 1979: 1. no space for prams at the second door and this handrail in the middle of the stairs, 2. black aluminum strips fixing the door seals (in 280.26 they were unpainted), 3. lighting of the articulated passage is in the "after 1984" version, 4. no red warning lights on the covers of the door mechanisms, 5. possibly covers for roof vents/emergency exits - according to Polish law, they were required to be different from those used in 280.11, delivered in 1978 and this requirement was met in 280.26, 6. there are no holes for mounting information boards at the non-opening side windows and in the middle of the rear window (and no wires for their lighting), 7. shelf under the window in the driver's cabin - we did not have a sound system, and the handbrake was placed in a different way - I've never seen it before made like this one, 8. the drive axle is definitely in a modernized version, installed "after 1984" - it makes characteristic sounds that prove it, 9. without the MALEV branding, the outside painting would be like on the Warsaw Ikarus, delivered between 1978 and 1984. greetings from Warsaw
Szuper :).
