Description:
First and perhaps most important fact, this coach has been re-plated as a Private Light Goods vehicle and can be driven on a normal car licence! Provided it’s not used for hire or reward and you carry no more than 8 passengers. It is also considered a class IV for MOT purposes and comes with 5 months MOT, new batteries, 2 new front tyres and a recent £3,100 mechanical overhaul.
Fitted kitchen with:
- Hob, Oven, Grill
- 3 Way Fridge
- Sink
- Portable Fresh and Waste Water tanks
- Solid wood worksurface
- Decent quality drawers and cupboards
- Air Conditioning, electric heating and original Volvo heating system
Seating area that converts to a 2 berth bed.
Separate bathroom with sink and brand new Thetford Porta Potti (never used). Bathroom also includes a shower tray but I never got round to fitting the shower unit (although the parts are included in the sale).
Bedroom with a double sleeping deck and currently a single below (although could easily be converted into another double by simply changing to a double mattress).
Garage
- Working hydraulics open the entire rear of the bus with the turn of a key (please see video www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjnW9qCqmIs)
- Fully plated garage area with ramps and electric winch
- Additional lighting and air lines in the garage for those late night repairs!
- Sizeable load area that happily fit a 4.5M long Nissan 200SX (S14)
Electrics
- 24 volt bus circuit (2 new batteries in Jan 2017)
- 12 volt leisure circuit with separate batteries
- 240 volt hook up
- Onboard Constavolt charging system
- Petrol Generator
The bus was stood between 2013 and 2016, so I asked Wrights Commercials to carry out a 121 point RHA inspection in November 2016 which raised 35 issues that needed addressing. Over the course of a couple of months and £3,100, Wrights got her recommissioned and back on the road with a fresh MOT on 30th January 2017.
The bus is currently stored just outside Silverstone and non-residential storage can be arranged with the landlord should you need to arrange ongoing storage. This is not a small consideration as the bus is over 11 metres long!
Fantastic fun to drive, super accurate steering and pneumatic everything makes it surprisingly easy to drive. Will be a real shame to sell but I’m not racing at the moment, so can’t really justify keeping hold of it.
It’s not got a radio fitted but on the flipside, it’s impossible not to hum ‘self preservation society’ to yourself wherever you go :-)
