Corgi did one:

Curteys Miniatures have a resin one in their 1st Corps range.
Not cheap at £27.50, but includes driver and passengers.
Their vehicles do look good at shows, and they are quite friendly chaps to talk to.

Corgi bus arrived yesterday.  Perfect.  Only needs a coat of matt varnish and a bit of weathering.  Same size at the 1st corps one, much more robust, and less than £5 (as opposed to £27.50).  No brainer.  And there's a load of them on ebay
