Demand for class A Winnebago 30ft 2005 in Europe?

i this is my first post here, so sorry if I have posted incorrectly.

My husband and I bought a Winnebago Sightseer - A class 30ft 2005 last year to tour the USA for a year. Our year is up and we need to sell the RV. It has 46,000 miles on the clock in fairly good condition. We are wondering if it is worth shipping it back to the UK to Southampton to sell it on. Is there any demand for them in Europe if it can be "converted". We are not quite sure what the conversion would cost or if it is even possible on our model. If anyone has done this recently we would love to get some advise on whether it is worth it or not.
Thanks for any input,
Happy travels

  • You might be able to sell to Top Gear people but they would be more interested in setting it on fire then a holiday weekend on the beach.

    Difficult to say but you're going to run into multiple problems, costs, input duties and such. The coach is set up for 120VAC 60 Hz which is going to be your first problem. Propane tank might not meet EU requirements, required road safety standards might also be a difficult problem. Demand sets price so is there a demand for coach of that size?

    I would sell it here and not take it back to the EU.
