ME 30 together with the other 40 fleet members were assembled in Hong Kong by KMB, with kits from Alexander in Scotland. This fleet was painted into a special livery. In the early stages of operation, these were largely used on the high demand cross harbour tunnel bus services. Later in their career these were then transferred to the services that link up with Yuen Long in New Territory and Kowloon due to their higher horsepower output. It was withdrawn in November 2002 and placed in temporary storage. It was then purchased by an Australian enthusiast and was shipped to Port Kembla in March 2009. It was restored to as-withdrawn condition and subsequently donated to the Sydney Bus Museum in 2020.
