Metro MAN's

Post by skystar320 »

Hi All! Hope everyone is well!

I have a couple of questions about the Metro MAN's for sale
would $15k be there lowest price?
I am thinking of buying a midi bus mid next year to turn into a camper, of course keeping the bus in tact as much as possible (no removing windows etc..)
what 5XX are on the market at the moment i.e how many are left?

Cheers
Greg

There is one on Bus Sales On Line, but asking $15,000 which seems a bit steep in my opinion,you could ask Metro directly but they wil most likely tell you to go through dealer, other than that search through the dealers as they may have something suitable and lower priced than $15,000, saw a Leyland National on Auction site that was fully kitted out and is at the Manheim Auctioneer's site in Melb

Latest word is $10,000.

Bridgewater holds 501, 503, 504, 506, 510, 513.
Springfield holds 502 (few parts remain), 505 (some parts taken), 508, 518, 511.

Do you reckon $10k is a good buy?
I reckon they will make a nice camper?
Thoughts?

$10k, meh. Depends which one you go for.
I hope to visit 522 later this week which is in the process of becoming a camper. 520 went to Victoria for a camper build as well.
I have some photo's of their current state if you'd like them.
