Epoxy black paint after meticulous preparation, no rust
Cabin Section:
Extremely healthy base. No rust before black epoxy paint application.
The vehicle was designed without the need for any modifications to accommodate four people to sleep comfortably.
You can stop and sleep directly.
Inside, all structures have been made using Bosch aluminium profiles. The structure is extremely rigid, resulting in no creaking noise in the cabin.
Four seats in the cabin with Mini Countryman seats adapted.
Pre-equipped to accommodate air conditioning. The vehicle has the specific control unit.
Reverse camera with a dashboard screen.
Homemade ceiling storage system with controls, car radio, and President CB with antenna.
The entire cabin was stripped bare.
The cabin is painted in Royal Air Force Blue.
The interior has been completely soundproofed (Noico), insulated, and padded.
Integrated seat belts in the pillars.
Sun visors spanning the entire width.
The cabin provides unusual comfort for this type of vehicle.
All hardware and peripherals for the vehicle were disassembled and painted with oven-baked epoxy.
All vehicle lights have been refurbished.

Reversible electric windows.
Key start in place of the original button.
Two matching fold-down seats for emergencies.
In the Living Area:
The living area was designed by myself and manufactured by a renowned and specialized company, "RR Concept," in this type of construction. Wall thickness is 48 mm, insulated. Reinforcements in the ceiling allow access to the living area. Integrated aluminum conduits in the sandwich structure allow for cable routing for ceiling lights and air conditioning.
The subframe was designed by a specialized company, fabricated, and installed by them. They managed the cabin construction as well as the installation of all openings.
Reinforcements were also integrated into the walls of the living area to ensure optimal attachment of interior elements.
Threaded steel plates were integrated into the rear wall to allow for the future addition of a motorcycle door, for example.
All furniture was designed to always leave an air gap between the walls and the furniture. The heating system circulating around creates a flow of warm air along the walls, preventing condensation and mold formation in the long run.
All openings are from the OUTBOUND brand, with double glass windows with gas, allowing for use at high altitudes. All windows have specific curtains and mosquito screens. The mesh is finer than on regular mosquito screens, even preventing midges, for example.
All ceiling lights are warm white LED, ultra-thin.
Convertible 4/5-seat lounge with storage compartments, stainless steel and marine-grade polished aluminum table legs. Corian® table surface at the same height as the kitchen countertop. Custom-made cushions for the lounge by a company specialized in luxury motorhomes.

Feel free to ask me any questions.
This vehicle is registered in the Netherlands for the moment. I have all papers to get old timer papers in France or Germany or any other European Country.
I am also open to an overseas sale. I have the relationships than will enable an easy transfer.
What the price is concerned, it is based on the buy of the vehicle and all the stuff on and around it. I did NOT take in account the hundreds of hours spent on it.
I stay open to any discussion about the price.
We would be pleased to know that a family is going to push our project to a magnificent journey.
(This add might be updated in the coming weeks if anything extra pups up in mind)
See you soon !
