Opel Bedford Blitz is correct, but the bodywork was done by another coachbuilder.

I am not sure. It seems that coachbuilding activities ended about 10 years ago and they turned to property management.

From serving the roach coach industry to serving the slumlord industry - a logical progression, of course :)

Was this picture taken in a German city, like Munich?

It is taken from the coachbuilder's leaflet. I guess it was pictured near the factory which was in a German city.
