Considering the styling and the flag, I think it is probably Dutch.

So many coach builders.

You say the engine is not Dutch. I say, considering what I know of buses in the Netherlands, it is most probably AEC. The coach looks very elaborate, therefore must be a "Touring car". It might be a Van Rooijen?

Normally Bedford busses used the chassis as well.

Den Oudsten?

Ah it was a Medema (a coach builder from Appingedam in the very North). The engine was *****

(but this is just to complete the answer. Of course, PGuillem deserves the point.
