is "motorcar" a term that is common in British English?

How do you tag the generic bus class in Britain?

FWIW, the common term "bus" is already taken for buses acting as public
service vehicles, so there must be something else for the generic vehicle
class for buses. I am not insisting on "motorbus", but it seemed to fit
with the rest of the terms, and it didn't seem to have specific meaning,
which the currently documented "tourist_bus" obviously has.

Cheers,
