POVC have been helping Oxford diecast with this for 2/3 years. A lot went into getting the lettering right. Front grille looks a bit off scale :I I'll still buy one tho':)

I have seen a picture somewhere of one of these in service with a public bus service and it had small rolling destination boards on the top at the front of the raised roof section just like the large commercial buses.:)
Why do some buses have the raised center roof[?] is it more head room or for the mail/cargo[?],
Mine is a 12 seater when its not in touring/camping mode and just has a standard roof with plenty of room inside.

Nice little model for the price though.[^]

OOHH! I just noticed the foot rungs by the passenger door, so i take it the high roof is for luggage/cargo.:I

Yes, there is a well in the top for luggage and also more headroom. These were converted by Dormobile. I have a '72 awaiting resto, the earliest surviving Postbus.
