Is it based on the Bedford CB which was to replace the CA van but for various reasons was cancelled.

Nice idea, not sadly not a correct one, as this is smaller than the both the Bedford CA and CB.

If it's a 100% in-house design that probably rules out the name Roma that may have been a Martin Walter design?

No, not Roma as that was a Martin Walker name, as you rightly say.  This Bedford has a shorter model designation.

Thinking of the era and the look of its rear end, the Luton poetry circle would have named it the "DA".

Thanks, but please unlock. I'd just be answering "DB" or "DC" etc etc in turn with absolutely nothing to base it on.

Lets try something in the direction of the HA / Beagle. I supposed it's a bit older than that, so my guess is GA.

GA? I'm honoured, as they are my initials!  However, it's not GA.
