Description
Ford Transit Autosleeper Legend GL 1990 motorhome with high-top roof – Rare classic vehicle – French classic registration – In exceptional condition
British collection utility vehicle converted from original into a motorhome by Autosleeper (Legend GL 1990 model) on a Ford Transit 2. 0 L petrol, right-hand drive, in exceptional condition.
This iconic model is often described as a “Riva on wheels” — refined, elegant and timeless.
The GL (Grand Luxe) version represented the top of the range for Autosleeper at the time.
Original chenille fabric upholstery, thick, very well preserved.
Original solid wood fittings, fully equipped kitchen (two hobs, oven, grill, three-way fridge), washroom with shower and toilet, functional gas heating, and numerous storage compartments perfectly preserved.
The whole is fully functional, dry, clean, and faithful to the original.
Everything works, no mechanical faults, bodywork sound, maintenance up to date.
Mileage: 65, 000 miles (≈105, 000 km)
Engine: Ford 2. 0 L petrol, smooth and reliable, well maintained
Transmission: manual
Layout: 4 berths (capucine bed + sofa bed)
Overall condition: excellent, original interior, no structural corrosion
Right-hand drive
French “collection” registration
Technical inspection: current and valid until 20 July 2028 (completed July 2023)
Dimensions:
- Length: approx. 5. 20 m
- Width: 2. 08 m
- Height: 2. 75 m
These dimensions make it easy to park in standard spaces, access city centres or conventional car parks — while offering the high-end finishes and luxury of a true motorhome, far superior to most recent vans.
Rare vehicle in France: no equivalent model currently for sale on the market. The collection registration allows simplified use (technical inspection every 5 years, reduced insurance, fiscal and administrative advantages). Regular maintenance, brake and mechanical components checked recently. No urgent interventions planned.
Small points to note:
The driver’s seat shows an area of wear that will need reupholstering to regain its original support, without affecting use or driving.
The three-way fridge works perfectly on 230 V and gas, but the 12 V mode needs to be reviewed.
The lock on the front left door only works when closed with the key, but opens and closes normally from the interior.
The lock on the rear door works perfectly from the inside, but does not lock with the key from the outside (it only opens) — cylinder to be replaced.
Apart from these minor details, everything else is immaculate.
Additional equipment:
- Rear bicycle rack,
- Side awning,
- Bluetooth reverse camera (ideal for manoeuvring),
- Operational gas heating,
- Complete washroom (shower + toilet).
