A visit to Ventura's Croydon depot, the former home of Mount Dandenong Passenger Service revealed many vehicles still in their livery and bearing the fleetname four years after takeover. This 1995 Nissan Civilian, 118 (2664AO), has the quaint Mountdandy Bus title was used on the side of vehicles.
 

Eight years on and 118 is seen at the main Oakleigh depot of Ventura in February 2012. Basically still in Mountdandy livery but with the Ventura fleetnames, the Mountdandy name having been eliminated.
 

Formerly 33 in the Mount Dandenong fleet, 118 is seen at the Melbourne Cup in November 2012, working alongside more prestigious fleet members. It was one of two Civilians in the fleet at the time.
 

An odd vehicle in the Croydon depot in April 2004 was 335 (2665AO). It was the forerunner of a fleet of around 100 MAN 16.240 buses to join Ventura, many with Designline bus bodies. This bus was the only one to bear a Newnham bodied when delivered in 1992.
 

Six years on and 335 has gained Ventura fleetnames on its Mountdandy colours and been assigned to the contract fleet at Ventura's main Oakleigh depot.
