Description

This is for parts or repair, but is still quite usable. Parts are all fully working and all interior fittings are good except one matress as split where upper surface material joins lower material, chassis is good, all road and interior lighting is good, but the body is suffering ingress. Entire front front end was completely rebuilt at great cost by the dealer 4 or 5 years ago (after an heated argument), now rear end needs similar work.
Front makes up into a double bed via pull out slats, note the seating length is too short to work as two singles. A free standing large table, stored in the toilet compartment, serves that seating area or can be used in an awning. Side dinnete makes up into a full length single bunk, with a fold out second bunk level above it.

Includes Electrolux RM212 3 way fridge freezer; electric or gas Carver Cascade water heater, shower + wash basin + Thetford C2 electric flush cassette toilet, Carver gas SB 1800 space heater, Rose oven + grill + hob, sink, double glazed, blinds + fly screens, plug in pump, 20amp PSU and Status built in Radio/TV antenna. 4x flourescent lights, 2x spot lights, 3x 240v outlets, 1x 12v outlet, 1x TV antenna outlet. Battery is not needed on EHU, the PSU can supply everything without need for a battery. .

do you have any piccies ?

Interior goodies should sell if I were to strip out for around £650/£750, but I would rather see it all go as one lump quickly.

Front - Still covered in winter muck, but its so cramped up I cannot get a hose to it. All taken earlier today.

I'll edit my original message, to include a bit more detail.

You say water ingress..... doesnt look that bad ???? where does it leak in ?

Well not water, damp ingress. At the rear end due to people pulling on the handles at the rear. It breaks the water seals which then allows moisture to get in - never try to pull a caravan especially by the rear handles, they are just not designed for it ;)

The front end had to be completely rebuilt from the front side windows forward. What you have to do is strip out the furniture from the entire area, take off the awning rails, remove all the lining boards then the damaged wood framing then then rebuild it. All done from the inside, fixing new frame back in place with the spaces of the insulation. Then finally new lining boards. Wood is cheap, so is lining board, the expense is just the time really. I've done a few.

They normally build caravan from the outside in, furniture first, then the walls, but repairs are done from the inside out. You work with the alloy shell in place. Furniture is screwed in place with the screws from the outside, so you have to cut them.

Harry, can I ask about the water system?

Does it have an onboard water tank and onboard hot water tank?

It looks quite good but i fear its beyond my DIY capabilities, but thankyou for you time in replying.

Title amended :D

If it falls through, let any Mod know and we can amend the title again ;)

Thanks and it was collected last Thursday.

To answer Silkelsh's question - it had an on board 7L gas and / or electric water heater, but no on board cold storage.
