DAF MB200
The DAF MB200 was a bus chassis, the DAF introduced in 1965 as a successor to the introduced in 1958 TB160 DAF chassis. The chassis was originally developed for the bus company Oudsten from Woerden and Hainje from Heerenveen and had a placed between the front and rear mid-engine for good weight distribution. There were various chassis of the DAF MB200, most as DKDL600 and DKDL564. The latter had a shorter wheelbase, so that a wider front door was possible. Originally, the chassis was shipped with a Wilson - GB340 - Semi-automatic transmission and a DAF -11 0.6 - liter diesel engine. Later, it was also automatic Allison or ZF Friedrichshafen.
In addition to the bus 200 MB a long coach chassis MB230 was built, which was delivered to the UK and Ireland. At the time there were coach chassis that were produced in continental Europe, is still relatively rare.
In 1982, based on the MB200 underfloor engine chassis an articulated DAF MBG on the market, which in 1988 replaced by the DAF SBG220. The SB220 chassis replaced the MB200 MB230 chassis and the chassis.
