At the Total Motorshow (KICC) sometimes in September, CICA Motors had nice buses on display; they don’t do the body building bit but can contract and deliver a complete unit build as per specifications.
and @ Robinhood noted costs vary depending on the type of body.
This is the DUTY PAID quotation send to me from the company;
HD72 Chasis Cab 3,127,000
Options /Accessories
Vehicle Registration 25,000
Bus Body 1,050,000
Total 4,202,000

Was just thinking....
It seems a number of Wazuans are interested in this business. That means if you join hands you can come up with your own brand name, brand your buses and manage them. Start figuring out how you can do this by your selves. Start recruiting your selves now.
Let me say I am interested, though I cant procure a bus now, but would be able to later and join.  I'm really interested in venturing to this business but I'm still saving for it. I'd like to know whether there are others interested we do something together

@Kingfisher, did the bus leave?How was the ride and out of curiosity, how about the experience on shuttle services? They seem more organised and less cumbersome. Anyone out there with experience? Accept no one's definition of your life; define your life.

Let me say I am interested, though I cant procure a bus now, but would be able to later and join. In the same situation. I am interested in the matatu industry. This is a good idea. The stars will never align, & the traffic lights of life will Never go green at the same time.
