that's kinda interesting ... since i've been keeping up with the VINs,
there's definite patterns/grouping appearing. but this one (91 syncro
camper) is a bit out of it. unless the groups got a lot smaller.
for 1991, up to 001443, they were assembled in Hanover. (highest
Hanover vin i've got so far).
from 001510 on, they're assembled in Graz, Austra, whether syncro or
not.

001443 to 01566 are Orly Blue metallic paint. 001443 is a Camper GL,
and all the rest are just GLs. 124 buses same color.
001666 to 001697 are Burgundy metallic paint. all GLs. only 34 buses,
same color.
then there's 001712, a GL. back to Orly Blue again.

then comes this 91 syncro camper at 001758. in white.
ok, so 001758 to 001814 are all white. but the rest are just Camper
GLs, not syncros. 57 buses same color.

which makes me wonder how many syncro campers or just syncros are in
the missing numbers from 00172 to 001758?
and how many buses constitute a 'batch' that were painted the same
color??

the plot thickens. ;)
