Leyland-National Mk 2 of London and Country. You could argue this is a new marque, because if I recall correctly the correct designation IS Leyland-National rather than Leyland, because it was a joint design between Leyland and the National Bus Company, built at a purpose-built factory. |

Definately a Leyland, you can even see the Leyland logo. |

Agree with SteveA 'Leyland National' is the manufacturer and not 'Leyland'. |

It probably has been repainted. The Birmingham registration suggests it was ex-West Midlands PTE, whose livery at the time was blue and grey/silver. |
