Looking at the trim detail, windows and curvature of the roof, this looks like a Busaf-built bus. They have been building buses in ZA on a variety of different rolling chassis, including Mercedes-Benz, Ford and several others (lately almost exclusively ERF). Their current web site (http://www.busaf-bus.co.za/) regrettably does not show pictures of their older buses.

Citsa, could you take a look sometime at the buses in Hotel Rwanda? It was filmed mostly in South Africa and all the buses are right hand drive, so I suspect they're local models (and not Tatas .gif ":)") )./movie.php?id=395169 |

Gag, I've made some comments there (some still inconclusive), but I concur that they are unlikely to be Tatas. Regarding this bus, the interior looks almost exactly like the Busaf bus our school used to have, which was built on a Ford chassis, and even more like the old Busaf before it, which (if we were lucky) ran on Austin mechanicals. |

At the risk of being wrong, I would still say it is a Busaf |
