Dont forget to paint it like a rainbow and become a new age traveller, how expensive will you insurance be?
I would have thought a single decker would have been a better idea though.

I still think you’re completely mad but I wish you the best of luck with it all Phil and hope you will keep us updated on here with photos of the conversion and the many tales that will no doubt come of it…
Fantastic mate, I wish I could do the same myself and wish you all the best with the project. Most of the people who criticise you will be unimaginative morons who live in bland Lego boxes, there should be more like you!
Are you going to keep it road-legal or is it going to be static?
I’m wondering where you bought it and how much you paid for it? PM me if you would rather not say on the forum.

Why would he want a bungalow?

Need a double deck for the extra space and yes I’m going to live on it

Good for you, I am seriously thinking of doing the same thing myself. It makes more sense than plunging myself into a lifetime of slavery to buy a two-up-two down shoebox.
OK, don’t get too excited about picking up the keys, it probably won’t have any!
I drove this one, an ex- London Transport M Class on a roadshow (it had been re-registered as an HGV so I could drive it on my HGV licence) . It had a green button to start it and a red button to stop it.
That used to do 45mph maximum too, dropping to about 15mph on the slightest incline, I spent a lot of time on the motorway ■■■■■■■■ myself and the first time I had to go up an actual hill, the gearbox exploded and had to be replaced.
