Something like a Nissan Cabstar , a fake British bus.
Wheels really let it down.
A replica Tilling Stevens K5LA7 according to this Flickr post-

It seems ridiculous to call this thing a Tilling Stevens, when it is, in reality, a mock up on a chassis that is no nearer to a Tilling Stevens than Tokyo is to Maidstone. As this database is a document of record, surely there is danger that some person of no knowledge might think this is what the real thing looked like.

I think its covered by the description 'Replica' and if I was a Tilling Stevens or old bus fan I would be interested to see it just as I find the Bedford A and Leyland FG replicas interesting as a Brit Truck Man , If they were all was described as 'Toyota Dynastar's'or whatever the chassis is I would never find them !

The actual bodywork is quite well done and if you saw this from the waist up it would be convincing in a crowd scene.

I think that you and I will have to agree to differ. Any description I could think up for this thing would commence with the word “shed”.

Vive la difference :)
But was their not a low bridge / wheelchair entry version of the Tilling Stevens KL5 !
Strange that they made such a mess of the wheels when theie replica Seddon was quite convincing.

Yes the ( real ) Chinese Motor Bus Company Tilling Stevens bodies are very similar , were they made in UK by same bodybuilder ?

Just off to the vets, (for the dogs, not me) I’ll do some digging later.

JG669, 1930 Tilling Stevens B9A Express/Brush.

Details about the China Motor bus coachwork seem to be non existent.
