              RESTATED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)

Note 1 - Unaudited Interim Financial Statements

This report updates MCII Holdings (USA), Inc.'s Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1996, in accordance with the instructions to Form
10-Q.  It is presumed that the reader has read the  Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The accompanying financial statements are unaudited, but have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01
of Regulation S-X.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included.  The interim financial statements contained
herein do not include all of the footnotes and other information required by
generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements, as
provided at year end.

The reader is reminded that the results of operations for interim periods are
not necessarily indicative of the results for the complete fiscal year.

Note 2 - Principles of Consolidation and Presentation

The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Consorcio G Grupo Dina, S.A. de
C.V. ("Dina"), a Mexican Corporation.  These unaudited financial statements
present the accounts of MCII Holdings (USA), Inc. and its subsidiaries  (the
"Company" or "MCII Holdings").  The Company's principal operating subsidiaries
are Motor Coach Industries International, Inc. ( "MCII"), Transportation
Manufacturing Operations, Inc. ( "TMO"), Motor Coach Industries, Inc.
("MCI-U.S.), Motor Coach Industries Limited ("MCI-Canada"), Hausman Bus Sales,
Inc. ("HBSI"), Universal Coach Parts, Inc. ("UCP"), and Dina Autobuses S.A. de
C.V. ("Autobuses").

On January 31, 1997, the Company acquired from Dina, its parent company,
99.99% of the shares of Autobuses as a contribution of capital.  This
acquisition represents a combination of entities under common control and has
been accounted for on an "as-if" pooling-of-interest basis, with the
accompanying financial statements restated for all periods presented.

All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated on
consolidation.   Prior period amounts include all reclassifications necessary
to conform to current presentations.

Note 3 - Restated Financial Statements

During the course of the Company's review of its 1997 financial statements, the
Company identified items that were not properly accounted for in its quarterly
reports.  Those items principally included charges to inventories and
receivables at the Company's U.S. parts subsidiary, UCP; expensing previously
capitalized start-up costs incurred in 1997 related to the development of the
Company's new line of coaches; and properly converting the financial statements
of Autobuses to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.  Because the
charges affected the financial statements contained in each of the Company's
three previously filed 1997 quarterly reports, the Company is restating its
financial reports for those periods.

The restatement of consolidated income statement information is as follows:

(1) All adjustments were tax affected at the appropriate effective tax rate.

(2) The adjustments primarily relate to properly accounting for related party
sale-leaseback transactions, eliminating intercompany profit in ending
inventory, eliminating Mexican GAAP inflation accounting, using the U.S. dollar
as the functional currency in 1997, and applying SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes".

         Canadian revolving credit loans are made available to a subsidiary of
the Company under an agreement which provided a credit facility of Cdn$10.0
million (equivalent to $7.2 million) and expired on January 31, 1997.  This
agreement was extended while a replacement credit facility of Cdn$19.0 million
(equivalent to $13.8 million) was being finalized.

         In September 1996, the National Bank Foreign Trade S.N.C. ("Bancomext")
provided a $20,000,000 credit facility to Autobuses to be used in conjunction 
with export sales.

         On May 28, 1997, an indirect subsidiary of the Company issued $30.0
million in short-term pre-export notes, maturing on November 26, 1997, to be
used to finance the manufacture by Autobuses of motor coaches for export to the
United States.

Note 8 - Noncash Activities

         During the first quarter of 1997, the Company gave a note payable to
members of the group consisting of the indirect controlling shareholders of the
Company in the amount of $10.2 million in exchange for a small minority
interest (less than 5%) in Arrendador Financiera Dina S.A. de C.V. ("AF Dina").
Dina owned the majority of AF Dina, a finance company furnishing financial
services to Dina.

         During the first six months of 1997, AF Dina loaned $10.8 million to
Autobuses to help finance its transit bus leasing program.  Most of the funds
were used in a sale leaseback program which capitalized transit buses which
were largely leased by Autobuses to Transportes y Services Terrestres G S.A. de
C.V. ("TSTG").  TSTG is controlled by members of the group consisting of the
indirect controlling shareholders of the Company


Note 9 - Related Party Transactions

         The Company provides for allocable management and administrative
expenses incurred  by Dina.  In the first six months of 1997, the provision for
such expenses was $1.5 million.  The amounts due to Dina for such expenses at
June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996 were  $1.7 million and $1.0 million,
respectively.

         During the first six months of 1997 and 1996 the MCII purchased from
Dina, in the ordinary course of business, $6.2 million and $1.1 million,
respectively, in goods and services.  During the same period, Autobuses
purchased from Dina, in the ordinary course of business, $17.6 million and 
$4.4 million, respectively, in goods and services.

Note 10 - Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

         The Company's Canadian income tax returns for 1982 through 1992 are
currently under review by Revenue Canada.  Authorities have proposed imputing
additional income relating to transactions with a U. S. based subsidiary of the
Company.  A formal reassessment has been issued by Revenue Canada on the 1985
return and the Company has filed a notice of objection to such reassessment.
In the event of an adverse judgment, the additional income taxes for 1982
through 1992 could amount to up to $26 million plus interest of approximately
$45 million, both before recoveries of  U. S.  Federal income taxes which may
be available to offset a portion of any additional taxes paid to Canada.  Based
on its review of current relevant information, including the advice of outside
counsel, the Company is of the opinion that Revenue Canada's arguments for the
1982 through 1992 period are without merit and that any liability from this
matter will not be material to its financial condition or results of
operations.

         The Company may be subject to potential reassessments for the years
subsequent to 1992 on the same basis which could result in additional income
taxes and interest for those years.  However, the Company believes that any
additional taxes paid to Canada would be substantially offset by recovery of
taxes paid in the United States.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

    Certain amounts have been restated from the previously filed quarterly
Management's Discussion and Analysis (see Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements). All references included in this Management's Discussion and
Analysis are to restated amounts.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

    The Company is a leading designer, manufacturer and marketer of intercity
coaches and related replacement parts for the North American market.  The
Company has achieved a strong market position through enhanced product design
and quality, a used coach business that supports trade-in activity and a
significant replacement parts and service business that supports coaches in the
Company's primary markets, as well as buses used in transit and school bus
transportation.

HIGHLIGHTS

    Flooding along the Red River threatened the Company's plants in Pembina,
North Dakota and Winnipeg, Manitoba and forced their temporary closure during
the second quarter of 1997.  Neither location was damaged, but production and
deliveries were disrupted for four weeks and delivery of approximately 120
units was delayed.  

    Mexican gross domestic product grew by 8.8% in the second quarter of 1997,
compared with last year's second quarter, following an increase of 5.1% in the
first quarter.  Gains in the second half of 1996 are likely to slow the
comparative growth shown in the second half of 1997, but year-to-year growth is
expected to be good.

COMPARISON OF SECOND QUARTER 1997 TO SECOND QUARTER 1996

    General.  Revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 1997 were $185.8 million,
an increase of 3% from $179.7 million in 1996.  Increased revenues were
recorded in all business areas, except MCII's coach manufacturing operations.

    The overall gross margin for the second quarter of 1997, defined as sales
less cost of sales (exclusive of depreciation and amortization), as a
percentage of sales decreased to 24.7% compared with 25.9% for the second
quarter of 1996.  Most of the decrease occurred at Autobuses, where second
quarter 1996 gross profits were unusually high due to a mix of sales that
disproportionally favored exports to the United States.

    Operating income was $22.5 million in the second quarter of 1997 compared
with $24.9 million in 1996.  MCII's coach operating income was adversely
affected by flood related problems and Autobuses was not able to repeat the
unusually strong performance of the second quarter 1996.

    Income from continuing operations was $9.4 million in 1997, compared with
$14.4 million in the second quarter of 1996.  The decrease was essentially due
to lower operating income and higher net interest expense. Net income was $9.4
million in 1997, compared with $9.4 million in the second quarter of 1996, due
to inclusion in 1996 of a $5.0 million, net of tax, additional provision on the
disposal of the transit manufacturing line of business.

    MCII.  MCII's revenues for the second quarter of 1997 were $165.5 million,
an increase of 2% over $162.3 million in the second quarter of 1996.  Coach
revenues decreased 5% to $115.7 million as new coach sales were 333 units in
the second quarter of 1997, compared with 351 units in the second quarter of
1996 due to flood related problems. Replacement parts' revenues increased 23%
to $49.9 million.  The increase was due in part to additional sales generated
through the acquisition of the assets of the Flxible Corporation, as well as
increased sales in both the coach and transit product lines due to increased
sales promotion programs.



                                       9
<PAGE>   12
    Gross margin for the second quarter of 1997 increased to 24.4%, compared
with 23.5% in the same quarter of the prior year.  Coach margins increased
slightly, while replacement parts margins were unchanged.

    Operating income was $20.3 million for the second quarter of 1997, compared
with $19.5 million in the second quarter of 1996.   Coach's operating income
was down $1.6 million due to the flood related problems, while replacement
parts' operating income increased $2.4 million, due to stronger sales.

    Autobuses.  Autobuses' revenues in the second quarter of 1997 were $20.3
million, an increase of 17% from $17.4 million in the same quarter of the prior
year.  This was caused by an increase in sales in the domestic Mexican market
where 1997 sales were 34 units, compared with 6 units in 1996.  Sales of
Autobuses' Viaggios in the United States were 45 units in 1997, compared with
65 units in 1996.

    Gross margin for the second quarter of 1997 decreased to 27.2%, compared
with 49.2% in the second quarter of 1996.  The increase in Mexican sales
occurred among less profitable products, while higher margin sales in the
United States declined.

    Operating income was $2.2 million for the second quarter of 1997, compared
with $5.4 million in the second quarter of 1996.  The reduced second quarter
results were due mainly to a less favorable mix of product sales and higher
general, selling, and administrative expenses.

    Interest Expense.  In the second quarter of 1997, net interest expense
increased to $6.4 million from $4.1 million in 1996.  The increase reflected
higher average debt levels during the 1997 quarter.

    Income Taxes.  The Company's effective income tax rates in the second
quarter of 1997 and 1996 were 43.8% and 34.2% respectively.  The Company
experiences a generally high effective tax rate due to the amortization expense
of nondeductible goodwill.  The increase in 1997 was due to the decrease in
earnings in Mexico which are not taxed due to losses in prior years and
inflation indexed tax deductions.


COMPARISON OF FIRST SIX MONTHS 1997 TO FIRST SIX MONTHS 1996

    General.  Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1997 were $360.4
million, an increase of 11% from $323.7 million in 1996.  Increased revenues
were recorded in all business areas.

    The overall gross margin for the first six months of 1997, defined as sales
less cost of sales (exclusive of depreciation and amortization), as a
percentage of sales decreased to 23.1% compared with 24.2% for the first six
months of 1996.  Most of the decrease occurred at Autobuses where increased
sales volume favored less profitable products.

    Operating income was $39.1 million in the first six months of 1997 compared
with $33.7 million in 1996.  The increase was primarily attributable to
increased revenues and lower selling, general, and administrative expenses.

    Income from continuing operations was $17.2 million in 1997, compared with
$17.4 million in the first six months of 1996.  The decrease was essentially
due to higher net interest expense.  Net income was $17.2 million in 1997,
compared with $12.4 million in the first six months of 1996, due to inclusion
in 1996 of a $5.0 million, net of tax, additional provision on the disposal of
the transit manufacturing line of business in 1996.

    MCII.  MCII's revenues for the first six months of 1997 were $326.8
million, an increase of 10% over $296.3 million in the first six months of
1996.  Coach revenues increased 4% to $226.1 million as new coach sales were
635 units in the first six

months of 1997, compared with 609 units in the first six months of 1996 as
customer demand continued strong, but flood related problems restricted
production and deliveries. Replacement parts' revenues increased 27% to $100.7
million.  The increase was due in part to additional sales generated through
the acquisition of the assets of the Flxible Corporation, as well as increased
sales in both the coach and transit product lines due to increased sales
promotion programs.

    Gross margin for the first six months of 1997 increased slightly to 22.6%,
compared with 22.5% in the same six month period of the prior year.

    Operating income was $34.2 million for the first six months of 1997,
compared with $27.4 million in the first six months of 1996.   The improved
first six months results were due to increased sales volume, better control of
costs and expenses, and  the nonreoccurrence of a $1.3 million restructuring
charge recorded in the first quarter of 1996.

    Order backlog for the United States and Canada as of June 30, 1997 was 658
units, which included 147 units for Greyhound Lines Inc.("GLI") and represented
an estimated 120 units delayed by flood related problems.

    Autobuses.  Autobuses' revenues in the first six months of 1997 were $33.7
million, an increase of 23% from $27.4 million in the first six months of the
prior year.  This was caused by an increase in sales in the domestic Mexican
market where 1997 sales were 95 units, compared with 16 units in 1996.  Sales
of Autobuses' Viaggios in the United States were 80 units in 1997, compared
with 99 units in 1996.

    Gross margin for the first six months of 1997 decreased to 28.5%, compared
with 43.0% in the first six months of 1996.  The increase in Mexican sales
occurred among less profitable products.

    Operating income was $5.0 million for the first six months of 1997,
compared with $6.3 million in the first six months of 1996.  The decrease in
results during first six months of 1997 was due mainly to an adverse mix in
products sold and higher general, selling, and administrative expenses.

    Order backlog for Autobuses as of June 30, 1997 was 483 intercity coaches,
which included 285 units for the export market.

    Interest Expense.  In the first six months of 1997, net interest expense
increased to $11.3 million from $8.0 million in 1996.  The increase reflected
higher average debt levels during the 1997 quarter.

    Income Taxes.  The Company's effective income tax rates in the first six
months of 1997 and 1996 were 41.4% and 36.5% respectively.  The Company
experiences a generally high effective tax rate due to the amortization expense
of nondeductible goodwill.  The increase in 1997 was due to the decrease in
earnings in Mexico which were not taxed due to losses in prior years and
inflation indexed tax deductions.
