There's a better view in this promotional still: http://www.imdb.com/media/rm4268461824/tt1139328 And the other bus in that still looks like a Scania OmniCity double decker (made in Poland): http://kuszok.bus.photos.fotopic.net/p59288257.html SteveA wrote There are actually two Bristol Lodekkas used in the movie. The bus passing as Ewan Macgregor enters the building (as seen in the still linked to above, http://www.imdb.com/media/rm4268461824/tt1139328 ) is EHT110C, a 1965 Bristol Lodekka FLF with Eastern Coachworks body new to Cheltenham District. I know the still shows it doesn't have a front entrance, but that's because it's been rebuilt with the entrance on the other side! If you watch the sequence you can see it! The Lodekka in [2nd thumbnail] is KAH461D, a 1966 FLF new to Eastern Counties. Both buses are owned by a Leipzig-based company. Thanks to Rob Sly (http://bcv.robsly.com/) for figuring out the ids.
