Whilst not completely happy with the wheel design, I would suggest that this may be a 1929 - 32 Mathis Type U1. |

I now see this has (what appears to be) an old Swedish plate, and appears to be RHD as well, as they were until 1967. Maybe a Scania-Vabis? Though I would expect the Swedish spelling to be "Petterson" with two Ts, which might hint this scene was faked in the UK. EDIT: quite similar, down to the disc wheels: Link to "upload.wikimedia.org" But not sure at all. -- Last edit: 2023-10-07 11:31:18 |

We already know the bus is from the Scania museum, so how about the 1927 Scania-Vabis 3251 from there? The box could be added for the film. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b3/1927_Scania-Vabis_3252.jpg And here it is around the time of filming with its old Swedish plate, which at least contains the ciphers 12: Link to "blogger.googleusercontent.com" http://www.tugboatlars.se/ScaniaVabisBryggarbil.jpg |

Indeed, nice find. Strange that it is RHD. It was registered in 1965 and eventough B1234 looks like a made up number the plate in the new system also ends in 4 which point to that it was the real number. In 1957 B1234 belonged to a 1952 Opel truck or van. B = Stockholms län. |

Why? You drove on the left until 1967. -- Last edit: 2025-02-23 13:09:05 |

Only buses were RHD. Maybe this was a bus at some point in its life? Perhaps that's why it was registered in 1965? |

Good to know, thanks! So all the '67s' here are false alarms: /movie_64832-Posol-Sovetskogo-Soyuza.html |

I don't know who put the date on these vehicles and I don't know why they are listed with these years. |
