Hello, I'm Andrea and I just bought a Euroclass 380 !

Good morning everyone ! My name is Andrea and I live outside Mantua in northern Italy, after years of looking for a truck etc etc I came across some old bus, there my light bulb went on.. After another months of reading your forum last week I also became I am a happy owner of a bus! More precisely an Iveco Euroclass 380 12 meters. It will be a long job, but I hope to receive good advice from you!

There are a couple of rust spots in the secondary frames, nothing to worry about, the vehicle is almost 30 years old, so time takes its toll on the seals and at least 3 of the windows that have condensation inside... For the rest, the car it has only 112,000 km it was a vehicle from the fire station. I hope I have a good vehicle. I am a motor enthusiast and I hope to be able to use my vehicle to go and see hill climb races, and to transport my motorbike around Italy and who knows maybe even around the world.

This is the vehicle, this evening if I have time I will try to take some pictures of the windows with infiltration problems. So maybe someone here who has had a similar problem can point me towards a solution..

I'll try to answer everyone a bit, yes the bus will be indoors, it fits like a hand in a glove, but it's definitely better than leaving it outside in the elements. The bus was purchased as soon as it was decommissioned by the fire brigade, who used it to move personnel due to natural disasters or events. My vehicle is still built in the iveco era, the merger with irisbus took place later, but let's say that those built later had a new engine and different bumpers, nothing substantial. For the rest, since I like complicated things, no Motomorini but Ducati, even if we always stay in the Bologna area as motorists..

Good evening, sorry for the delay but here I am again with some updates. I removed almost all the seats and left 8+1. I also disassembled the hat boxes, leaving them only above the passenger seats. Removed the driver's seat, to replace all the pneumatic lines, wash the upholstery and put everything back in its place. Now I have a question for all of you, I wrote to Iveco to ask for a mechanic's manual, to have electrical, pneumatic and hydraulic diagrams and they practically laughed in my face, they only supply them to authorized workshops. Do you have any solution? How did you get a workshop manual, if you have one?
