I would highly recommend including current pictures showing the paint job and several interior pictures. I would also describe things like plumbing (water closet?), water heater, generator?, AC units?, and anything else that tells someone what is inside.

Also, is the unit road worthy and inspected? Has it been used recently? Can I drive it to France tomorrow?

Would this be a good mobile office for a construction site? Mobile classroom? Doctor's office? Bloodmobile?

Buyers will typically use these units for a specific purpose. Only a small adventurous few want them to convert them to a camper but they want a deal since they will have the costs of building in the camper parts. As a result, these unique units don't hold their value as much as RV would. The mobile smoothie unit had a hard time selling due to the unique intent.

One of the key issues here will be the length of the vehicle, small roads being a major constraint in the UK,and, to a lesser extent, on the continent. Out of interest, do you know what happened to the interior? I'd definately be interested in buying a few parts

some interiors of the bus. And the current paintjob. As I said, mechanically very sound -lots of new parts and meticulously maintained. Not quite ready to cannibalise for parts yet.
Gotta find her a new home soon...

no toilet. Very powerful heaters throughout. Wheelchair lift and generator. And yes, you could most definitely go to France -or wherever- at a moments notice.

I wonder if that is one of the NASA buses that went to England or over there somewhere and then converted to its current state. I know that 2 was shipped over by the Air Force to be used as hursts for soldiers, but then just irronically disappeared off the books in a sale.

Boy oh boy some of the things I could with it if it was here in the U.S. and it would have a good home.

Way cool. I was not expecting that!

Is it a 1993, 1994, 1995, or 1996? if you don't mind, I'd like to snatch the pictures for my archives!

Definately a Commercial Division issue MH. Do you know what it was like when it came over to the UK. Did it come with an AS interior when it came to the UK? good luck with the sale. I've got a few suggestions on where you might be able to get rid of it, drop me a PM
