I believe this is an MB Lo 2600 19 passenger bus with coachwork by Kässbohrer.
The year should be 1934.

Correct on all accounts. One more point for you.

Congratulations to your 100th point!

Thank you very much Gerd!!!

The same vehicle, different view, appears in a well known marque history book with the rear part of the top/hood folded down and I suspect it is a one off.

It has taken a lot longer than I would have imagined to reach 100 successful answers, but I guess that is due to the fairly narrow range of research I have done over the years which is in areas rather far away from 95% of the quiz questions.

Still, it is a lot of fun and autopuzzles is my first and last visit on the web every day and many times in between just in case.

Cheers
Bill
