On the assumption that the next stand along belonged to Berna, I suppose there is a Swiss connection.  A coach looking like that would definitely brighten-up the M6 on a rainy day, which would make it a Gangloff - say 1954 or 1955?

No Swiss connection I'm afraid and it's older than 1954/55.
Have another Try before I open it again.

Thank you kindly.  Quick guess then - Heuliez.  Butit can't be that much older than 1954. 1952?

A striking resemblance with this DAF bodied by Verleure (as shown in the right part of the windshield) presented at the Brussels Show. It was owned by Selecta Cars.
