chris40 ◊ 2010-04-05 21:27	I'm not sure. It's very blurred but the bright window frames suggest an Austin A152 to me.
Barrett ◊ 2010-04-05 23:24	Yes, it's an Austin rather than a Commer. I don't know the difference between a J2 and an A152 (is there one?) but it's certainly one of those.
chris40 ◊ 2010-04-06 09:11	No, there isn't any difference. Strictly speaking Austins are A152, Morrises J2, but IMCDb isn't the only site that doesn't recognise this
