A view from the top: After the fall of the Berlin Wall

I don't really see myself as being a snob but I do tend to turn my nose up at the Neoplan. Maybe it goes back to the days when they looked like their bodies were just sheets of glass mounted on to old American car parts and chrome-plated kitchen fittings. Strangely enough today I tend to prefer the vulgarity of bright work and metal strip as seen on this Severin+Kuhn Berlin tour bus of the Seventies to the offerings of the dumbed down 'plastic age' we live in now with it's smoked glass and boring characterless liveries.
