Saw this a few years ago on Ebay, it had 41,000 on the clock, I can't remember the price though. I really fancied it but someone beat me to it, I was gutted. It is an A class with monocoque shell. The mileage is too high for me now though. :(

Visited Maess about 15 years ago, liked the Evolution on the Sprinter chassis, they were only built to order.

Thought an a class was a van which was completely built from chassis up. Thats got a fiat ducato front end so is it not a c class coachbuilt?

It does look like an ordinary Fiat Ducato, but it's quite a bit wider, with the monocoque body attached, so it is built from the chassis up.
I was very tempted, by one of these, about 18 years ago, and looked at one at a show, and visited the uk agent, at Tattesrhall, several times.
It's the only A class, that has tempted me, because of it's design being similar to a normal van.

I have an Autosleeper monocoque and the fiberglass body is a lot wider than the cab which started life as a chassis cab but it aint an a class.
 
It's not a Ducato cab though, just shares some OEM parts. The cab is wider, not just the body.
Wider grill and wider panels either side of bonnet give it away.

83k too high for a 2006?.?

Some people do actually use their vans Ral, I bet you have done more than that since 2006? I would prefer a more used mileage than a low mileage, I don’t think it does motors any good being stood 50 weeks a year

You are probably right Neil. I get wary of mh's that near 100k simply because you rarely see them, maybe down to body work failing on older models?

Actually, you got me thinking what mileage I have done since mhing, a rough estimate is about 80 - 100k but that is spread across six mh's. I guess I'm still looking for the perfect one?:)

The above is for the UK only, not included is approximately 20 - 25k done in NZ and Oz in three mh's. We have yet to do Europe in a mh, driven in a car only.
 
Think mine is getting around 125k now, being grounded last 6 months has saved a bit I guess
