Jason, the owner of that milk float really should clean his windows which have misted up. He might cause a road accident you know!!

Nice one mate!

Wish I had known that Nick, did not pay much for this one any way luckily.
I have a few early ones with the bottle decal and clear windows but you must have all the other ones.
I find the clear window version very hard to find on either decal, you must have the luck with this one Nick.

It's kind of hard to tell as I didn't take these pics to show the windows specifically, but I think both of my bottle decal examples have clear windows.
They look clear in person anyway:

These are definitely green windows. If there is any hint of green in the corners, then the colour is not colourless ("clear").

These windows are best viewed from the rear. If you do not see any hint of green from that angle, only then they are really colourless.

Can be very hard to tell on this model, I will try and get some photos sorted out of the windows.
Clear windows have no hint of green at all, some green windows can be very pale just look inside as my photos show. J

D'oh! I had a feeling I was wrong - I have a hard time with this unless the window tint is very obvious. Thanks for the hint on the corners, I guess that's the best place to look.
