Seems convincing. I thought about Setra, too, but then I remembered, that there was a COMECON-law (when??), that the production of several industrial products -especially all kind of vehicles- shall be concentrated at specific plants in specific countries. So for that reason the very much buses in COMECON-countries, incl.the USSR were the Hungarian Ikaruses. Due this law the bus-production in the DDR was stopped. Same happened with motorbikes. So motorbikes with max.250 ccm should be produced only in the DDR. In Czechoslovakia the bigger ones. |

Not all countries agreed for these (of course it worked, but not on so big scale like was originally planned). At this moment I can't see any other COMECON country, who reduced its automotive industry as much as East Germany. Not to say, that Ceauşescu's Romania, always kept a certain distance in relations with the SU. |

If the model depends on the number of seat rows as Alexander says, and we don't have a side view available maybe just name it Kässbohrer Setra S or S-Series? /vehicle_15236-Kassbohrer-Setra-S-10-1963.html |

@Weasel: due this rule the DDR even had to cancel its aviation-industry (Junkers, Heinkel). In the 50ies it had still existed (largely, as it was bombed and dismantled later on. And the most engineers scooted to West Germany). Same with ship-building. The COMECON-shipyards had their rules, who has to built what classes of ships. |
