Neat very neat

I've seen one like this before with a suzuki Cappuchino Parked in the back

Yes but that would go in the back of a reasonable-sized estate car!

If it's RWD and rear engined then prop shaft won't be a problem!

Excellent point.

Their vehicles are all superb! I like the one that you can drive either a smart or a mini up ramps onto! Superb!

Certainly gives me food for thought!! Makes my 'stretched limo' look archaic.

this thing has to have air suspension as it looks like it would ground itself getting over a lolly stick never mind a good old British speed bump

Driver: Better just raise the suspension to get over that speed bump.

I assume it has hydraulic legs for levelling the thing when parked up on uneven ground ... hence being able to left the wheels off the deck to let the SLK out.

 

[imadoofus]

Too much money and not enough bloody sense!

1) Pay some mug to follow you in the SLK, and then stick him in a hotel when you get to wherever it is you're going.

2) Presumably you're going to leave the kid on his own in the bus when you go out, becasue you can't get 3 people in an SLK.

3) Buy some bicycles you lardy-****d berks.

Just as a matter of interest, what sort of UK Licence would you need to drive one of those things? It is a full size coach in all but seating capacity I suppose.

I take it you don't approve?

Perhaps they might not be practical over here, but they have a certain appeal if I were on an extended tour of the US. Go where you want, when you want and not worry about booking accommodation. Certainly an expensive choice, but if you can afford it!!

If you passed your test before 1997 you are covered up to 7.5 tonnes. From 1997 it's only 3.5 tonnes, but you can get that upgraded (edit: by applying for an LGV licence).

Each to their own and respect for speaking up. No one on here has one so your certainly not upsetting anyone.

I thought if it was for personal use and had a limited number of seats you could drive something bigger than 7.5 tonnes. Often see buses converted to campers with adverts that say can be driven on normal license.

Hmm ... don't think so. The places I've seen that hire out camper vans, horse boxes, etc. always make a point of them being 3.5 tonnes or less.
