  16. Well it failed its MOT only on the front shocks, so they're ordered and the bus is in the garage at the end of the road currently.
    Here it is at its new home :)

    Thought I had already posted this.

    Are you keeping the interior as it is @Lord Congi? Have you got a working cool box? What will you cook on when travelling? :)
