Evo i citata sa njihovog oficijelnog sajta:

JONCKHEERE : COACHBUILDER WITH A RICH HISTORY

The start
In 1881, some time before any automobile had even been on the road, Henri Jonckheere began to build horse drawn carriages in the town of Beveren, near Roeselare in the province of West-Flanders, Belgium. This makes Jonckeere one of the longest established coachwork builders in Europe.

The early 1900's
The start of a new century also meant the real start of the motoring era. In 1902 Henri Jonckheere built his first "luxury automobile". In those days many, largely wooden bodies with their typical stylig, were built upon several famous chassis such as Minerva, Rolls-Royce, FN etc.

After the First World War
In 1922 Henry's son and successor Joseph Jonckheere built his first bus body. Yet car bodies were still a large part of the production until the early 1930's. Around that period the European car markets flooded with cheaper, mainly American volume built products. This virtually killed the Belgian traditional craft of car building.

BUSES AND COAHCES WRITE HISTORY

Belgian market leader
Joseph Jonckheere had seen the danger on time and moved all of the production to bus and coach building making Jonckheere the Belgian market leader. Jonckheere also became a famous and well-known name abroad.
A new world war however again disrupted the output.

A new start
After the second world war there was a huge need for vehicles for road transport, which included of course a lot of buses and coaches. Jonckheere was able to meet quickly all new market trends. In the sixties production was diversified. Some departments developed into a separate division : Jonckheere Subcontracting.
In the meantime the third generation of the Jonckheere family had started in the company.

THE FIRST CENTENARY AND BEYOND

Towards standardisation
The bus and coach factory was working at full capacity : between 8 and 10 completed vehicles left the production line in Roeselare each week. Therefore it was necessary to standardise the production, yet without losing the importance of being able to meet several specific customer demands.

Product range for the whole world
The product range in the meantime included luxury touring coaches, city and intercity buses, articulated buses but also heavy duty buses for world-wide export and several special bodies. Jonckheere vehicles were now all over the world.

Ready for the millennium
In 1981 Jonckheere celebrated its first century with a touring coach with the appropriate name : the Jubilee. Successors such as the Deauville and the Mistral would conquer the world later. In 1994 Jonckheere became a part of the Berkhof Group followed by further development within the VDL Group since 1998. Thanks to synergies Jonckheere continues to take the world into the new millennium. In 2003 the official name Jonckheere has been changed into VDL Jonckheere.

Što? Večina buseva sa visokim podom ima dodatan brusać, da putnici vide van.

Nije problem što stoji vodoravno nego prelazi preko vjetrobranskog, nisam baš siguran da je u funkciji.
