Ingo ◊ 2011-04-08 22:59	What was it in its first life?
DynaMike ◊ 2011-04-08 23:02	Looks like a mobile dentist studio...
Gomselmash11 ◊ 2011-04-09 05:05	No, a regular urban bus, for sure.
Ingo ◊ 2011-04-10 23:22	How sure are you? Size and position of door, window, air-intake and the lower flaps doesn't look like from a bus. To convert the bodywork in this way, would be really complcated. Why it cannot have been, as DynaMike suggests, a mobile dentist studio? Or -not only in Germany- there were special made coachworks, based on bus-chassis, as mobile bank-agencies, libraries, TV-broadcasting-trucks and some more.
Gomselmash11 ◊ 2011-04-10 23:56	not complicated... its just a rebuilted urban bus. When the buses end their useful life, are reshaped thousands of different ways, until they are cut and used as a truck. So do not have that surprise. A mobile dental study, as suggested, is something so very rare and never seen here. I continue to think that is a refurbished bus and radiated from the urban service.
