What about the plonker who converted the double decker bus. They get 5mpg and have 275 litre tanks. So currently it would cost around £500 to fill the tank, and they would get 300 miles on a full tank. That’s £1.67 a mileChannel 5 @ 8:00. Million Pound Motorhomes.
Definitely one to miss.
But I enjoy watching the programme.

For once I thought someone had done a good job of the double decker bus. It was nice. However totally impractical especially as they were talking about going to Devon of all places in it.
However I wonder if thats true. It was such a good job and I was gobsmacked how little money it had cost them. He clearly knew what he was doing and I bet that bus will end up sold and being used on a glamping site where I imagine it will demand north of £200 a night rental.

Barry he had to pass his HGV costing £1500 in order to drive it.For once I thought someone had done a good job of the double decker bus. It was nice. However totally impractical especially as they were talking about going to Devon of all places in it.

When they took off a chair came flying down the stairs.
I don’t think much thought was put into this.
Also tyres are £800 a whip, and god help him if he gets mechanical issues, I don’t reckon quick fit will be able to get it up on a ramp.

i once worked on a d/decker and didn't like it . up and down those skinny stairs ,all those windows heating it up like a sauna and low ceilings .
the guy bought it off a 'safari'' company for 8 grand ,main attraction being the upper frame could be dismantled for low bridges .at the time you could buy a bus for 2grand . it was a good days work to take it all apart then rebuild it . i thought the whole idea was crazy. to me it was a big lumbering white elephant
