Hi Mark spotted that about 3/4 days ago and thought of you :Smile: but then I thought of selling come selling time ::bigsmile: It's not the best conversion but may be good for your needs :thumb: and as a starter van I would be relutent to tell you to buy a self build simply because you could loose big time :Eeek:
I must say though I dont think you will be stuck with iy long or loose to much

As it's a self build
check it's shown as motor/homecaravan on the log book

Have a good check of 240 / 12 volt and gas
looking for a good seal on the fridge rear
I think waeco fridges from distant memory
Were not designed for motorhome installation
Although they are three way fridges
( not all but some also check the flue arrangement )

Most importantly if it isn't tidy looking finish wise
The inner workings may not be a lot better

Other than that good luck and hope all is what you require

JJ likes those Ivecos, but of course that one is definitely the wrong colour for him ::bigsmile:.

Was a newbie, now a Middie.
Those back doors look a little 'odd', bogged up, or have they been forced open?? Worth a look though.

It says it is professionally converted.

That's not a self build.

Anyway who on this earth would want a red van.

JJ :Cool:

Not a very good professional conversion :Eeek: more like a competent DIYer ---reminds me of a Kestral conversion, again pro but not v good but they are improved a lot ::bigsmile:

Its looks good and would save a lot of work as its ready to go, RWD with a proper chassis and he has obviously had it converted and used it for a hobby of motorsport, bikes in the garage or towing a car, be interesting to see why he is selling it, its an ex postal van hence the red colour and the easy in/out entrance either post office or more likely parcel force, a look at all the MOT's may be a good check on the milage as it seems low for a commercial vehicle

did you check its registered as a motor caravan ?

if not you will never get it registered as one now.....the outside MUST look like a motorhome to qualify...among other things.

also check the gross weight.
i assume you have a pre 1997 licence so no problem if it is....post 1997 and you arent licenced if its over 3500kg.
