CHALLENGER BUS AND COACH SLOALLINS PTY LTD ABN 81 622 685 205 19 Sawmill Road, Mossman, Queensland (07) 4098 2380 0418 314 642 Australian Bus Operators This is a whole new approach for you to keep your fleet on the cutting edge with a low running cost in partnership with the supplier.
We are introducing a new coach into the local market, which is specifically designed and built for the Australian Bus & Coach industry and our particular conditions. The new Challenger Coach V12, by IWarrior and supported by AnYuan Bus Manufacturing, is a purpose built vehicle from China by experienced engineers that have previously worked in manufacturing Chinese-Australian buses. Important details that will set our vehicle at a benchmark above other Chinese manufactured brands are its durability and longevity. Key particulars that ensure the Challenger Coach V12 is a superior product to its Asian counterparts are: Bus framework is a durable and high tensile stainless steel from Finland (Stalatube). Body work is of compressed fibreglass and aluminium, which assists in the prevention of body corrosion. Flooring is strengthened PVC material, providing body with long term protection. Key parts and components are of known quality and high performance. Quality welding and sealant finish. Large luggage through bins. USB ports on each seat. Flexibility in specifications
The important stuff: 1. Detailed Coach Specifications Please refer to attached specification list for full details, which can include variations on certain product and supplies. We will work co-operatively with you to ensure flexibility and to accommodate any requests. 2. Funding option available If financing options are required, we recommend the use of our associate finance entity, Bus Finance Australia Pty Ltd, who can structure a competitive finance quote over various periods up to 10 years. Bus Finance Australia Pty Ltd can finance the full purchase price, inclusive of gst and registration costs, and structure the repayments according to your cashflow requirements, subject to meeting their lending criteria. 3. Warranty details We offer an extensive warranty cover for a period of up to 2 years, including chassis and body. Running gear will be 2 years or 200,000 kilometres. Parts will be replaced free of charge once faulty item has been returned to us (see also point 5 below parts availability). Cost of your labour for warranty repairs will be paid upon your approved warranty labour claim. Should there be a breakdown issue we will provide support to gain access to your vehicle with towing arrangements organised by us, or reimbursed if organised by yourself.
4. Best price for a coach purchase, including all standard inclusions (see specification) Our introductory price per unit is $280,000.00 + gst and on road costs (ex stock) This price is based upon the specification outlined in the attached document, which includes Bull Bar, Leather Belted Seats, full audio, etc. We can offer different configurations of this vehicle such as seating capacity, toilet, wheelchair lift, seat type (reclining, fixed, etc), seat cover variations (cloth, leather, vinyl, etc), seating capacity options (eg, 3 x 2), choice of Air Conditioning unit, centre door (2-door option), fleet colours and sign writing. Any or all of these options can be negotiated at the time of purchase. 5. Guaranteed parts availability and timeline We will provide selected key parts, on a consignment basis, to ensure that any day to day issues are supported. A stock list will be supplied and stock take will be taken periodically to determine parts usage. Parts will be invoiced to you when they are used. We will hold other key parts in Australia as part of our warranty support. Any item required outside of your consignment stock will be supplied ex Australian stock holdings by fastest economical means. All running gear in our vehicles are supported by local suppliers via their national service network ie Cummins, ZF & Allison. Any parts used for warranty replacement will be supplied free of charge on return of faulty part (see also point 3 above Warranty Details). 6. Servicing costs/fixed pricing Service items such as filters, belts, wheel bearings, brake linings, etc will be supplied to you at a greatly discounted Wholesale price, with price adjustments annually based on CPI movements over five years.

Overall we are keen to work in conjunction with you to ensure that your new Coaches are meeting your requirements and expectations. As a Challenger customer, we will offer you the opportunity to visit the manufacturing site in Pinxiang China to see the production process and meet the key people involved. As a long term bus operator of FNQ Bus Lines, I am proud to be involved with this vehicle and support its introduction into the Australian bus and coach industry. I personally have placed orders on several buses as a testament as to the superiority of the product compared to its other Asian counterparts. Please call me personally on 0418 314 642 to discuss this opportunity. Yours faithfully, Greg Sloan, Director Sloallins Pty Ltd
