This ’61 Bedford Dormobile Camper a Gorgeous Time Capsule – RVBusiness – Breaking RV Industry News
You can never go wrong with a classic. If that classic also happens to have been an RV pioneer, like this 1961 Bedford Dormobile Camper, it becomes the equivalent of a unicorn on wheels. A most beautiful, motorized, family-ready unicorn, according to an article at AutoEvolution.com.
The Dormobile name might not ring familiar to you, and that’s probably because it’s more of a regional icon, having started out in the UK and then spread across Europe. In recent years, its cult following has been growing, though its popularity within the owners community never floundered.
Dormobile Campers don’t emerge on the market for sale every other day, let alone one in such good condition, so this makes for a very special occasion. This 1961 Bedford Dormobile Camper is up for sale from the Netherlands, with two more days to go into the auction as of the time of writing. The current bid is at €10,000, or $10,800 at the current exchange rate, but reserve hasn’t been met.
Assuming you’re not exactly on the market for a new RV, even one as old and gorgeous as this one, the auction is still an excellent opportunity for window shopping. Because this particular RV is in such fine condition, having been restored by an enthusiast a few years ago, it’s a time capsule of the most delicious kind, offering a look at what constituted attainable luxury back in the day.
