Interesting variation, bit like an ambulance. The upstairs is only suitable for little people though.

Hi
That's extraordinarily nasty...too tall....I love sail and tall ships, but sailing a Bongo in high wind....OOOOOOHHHHH no.....it's not really possible to tack a Bongo in a BAAD wind on a motorway

...and the UPholstery is more like THROWUPholstery....I'd hate to wake up to that after a few bumpers of relish.......I DO like the back door, though...nice easy access
I'd also say it needed an engine upgrade to somewhere over 3 litres to lug that shape around.
Cheers
Helen

Someone loves her though

Hi
I'm sure they do, Derek, but obviously not for us...but having said that, there are other ice-cream van conversions out there , one of which I remember was reasonable!
Cheers

There can't be many like that, and I remember one Luke it for sale (on ebay I think) some years back. Took a long time to sell. As said, must be v tricky in windy weather, and around bends. Might as well get a Romahome as aesthetic appeal is similar

I seem to recall that one (or same shape) being at the National rally last year!

Yes same number plate as well!

I think it was at the Peak District meet as well.

A touch of the Romahome about it.
If Romahomes don't mind me saying so!
