1989 Vixen Motorhome

I just inherited a 1989 Vixen 21 SE with 50,000 original miles and I'm looking for anyone with knowledge or experience with these coaches.
  • So there is a Vixen owners forum. Vixenrv.org I think.
    Diesel or gas?
  • Are you kidding me! What a jewel!! Vixens were made in the mid to late 80's! Do you have the 21 TD, or the 21 SE, or the 21XC? There 6' height 21' in length. Powered by a BMW Diesel! Which transmission do you have the Renault 5 speed standard or the GM 4 speed? They have a welded steel body with a fiberglass body attached! Hang on to it! It's a gem! By the way Welcome to RV.Net!
  • I'm sorry, but people in California are not allowed to own the Vixen's.
    You will need to give it to me. People in Texas can own them. :)

    You are soo lucky, enjoy it.

    Saw this one for sale. A rare RV
  • My exprience with a Vixen was that I went to the bankruptcy sale hoping to buy a generator for my new Jamboree. From the sale prices they were getting on the auction I could buy one new with a warranty for less money. They also sold 3 almost finished MHs there for reasonable prices. That was the only bargain I saw the whole day there with cash in my pockets.
  • Was on my short list when I had my Toyota Sunrader. But after a long trip in the Sunrader, we realized that a small motorhome was just out of the question for us. Some body is always in the way when moving around the inside of the coach!
