I found one that looks like the photo on your link, but the grille badge says Steyr instead of Saurer : http://www.weddings-and-more.de/images/slice_0106/img_010603_foto_postbus.jpg However, the registration number on your example is much closer to the unknown bus. -- Last edit: 2011-08-08 12:26:08

The other differences are also roofracks and mentioned doors. I think these are two different versions of the same bus model; maybe it depends on what was the purpose of use.
