Relive the Golden Age of Travel: 2001 Compass Cruiser 740
Experience the perfect blend of classic British craftsmanship and spacious living with this 2001 Compass Cruiser 740. Built on the legendary Peugeot Boxer chassis, this motorhome offers a level of comfort and durability that modern builds often struggle to match. While the exterior would benefit from some cosmetic attention and general maintenance to bring back its original lustre, the interior remains a testament to high-quality design, making this an ideal project for an enthusiast looking to add value to a classic tourer.
The heart of this motorhome is its expansive rear lounge, a signature feature that provides a panoramic view of your surroundings through large, 'nosey' windows. It is the ideal spot for a morning coffee or an evening of relaxation, and when night falls, it effortlessly converts into a massive, plush double bed. Moving forward, the well-appointed side kitchen comes fully equipped with a full-sized oven, hob, and grill, alongside a functional fridge and plenty of workspace for preparing gourmet meals on the road. Above the drivers cab there is a large double bed accessed by a ladder.
Safety and convenience haven’t been overlooked. The central washroom is surprisingly roomy, featuring a dedicated shower area, vanity sink, and a reliable cassette toilet. Storage is abundant throughout the cabin, with overhead lockers and under-seat compartments ensuring you never have to leave your essentials behind.
The exterior bodywork shows its age and requires some TLC—specifically some pain peel repairs—but the structural integrity and mechanical bones of the Peugeot 2.4L engine remain solid. With a bit of elbow grease on the outside, this Compass Cruiser will be transformed back into a head-turning flagship. It is a rare opportunity to own a timeless piece of motorhoming history at a price point that accounts for the maintenance needed.
Note to Buyers: This vehicle is priced competitively to reflect the required exterior maintenance. It is a fantastic "blank canvas" for someone handy or looking for a high-spec motorhome on a budget.

The mileage on this vehicle was correct at the time of valuation, however the vehicle remains in use by the Seller until the point it is sold, therefore the mileage at the time of sale may be higher than that advertised.
