The Ford E450 is widely used in the States as a paratransit and minicoach, but this one, 105 (YR2359), was bodied as a 23 seat bus by Kiwi in 1999 for Bay Hopper services.

The E450 was followed a couple of years later by four less box-like 35 seaters built by Kiwi on the Ford F53, a cabless version of the beefier F550 cutaway. This was the first one seen splashing through the town.
