Jelcz PR100 is a Polish, medium-floor city bus, which was presented for the first time in 1972. Its serial production was carried out in the years 1972-1975 and took place in Zak³ady Samochodowe Jelcz.
The Jelcz PR100 was developed as a successor to the Jelcz 272 MEX city bus, often popularly called a cucumber, being the result of cooperation between the Jelcz plant and the French company Berliet. Compared to its predecessor, it was a completely new structure, which differed in a very significant way on almost every level. First of all, the Jelcz PR100 was not based on a truck chassis, but from the very beginning was designed as a city bus, which allowed, for example, to place the engine compartment at the rear of the vehicle. An all-new 170 HP Berliet V800 engine was also used. A completely different body, much more glazed, was also used. At the time of putting into production, the Jelcz PR100 turned out to be a very modern vehicle, but it showed many shortcomings - first of all it was highly emergency, it had insufficient passenger compartment capacity, and it had only two pairs of doors. For these reasons, it was relatively quickly replaced by a more successful design - the Jelcz PR110.
The models are digitally printed - some adhesives can dissolve the ink!
Paint in digital printing can be dissolved by certain types of adhesives like butaprene and similar on the same solvents. Before bonding, it is advisable to try the adhesive used on a barely visible part of the model.
