£30k – Iconic Routemaster London Bus For Sale

An iconic Routemaster Red London Bus is for sale and it could be yours for just £30k.   

 

At Rare Etc, we're regularly debating and deliberating the meaning of words like 'rare', 'iconic' and 'amazing' (after all, those words are at the heart of what we do on this website) so once again, when we saw this classic red London bus come up for sale on eBay, we had to revisit all of those previous conversations.  Is it 'rare enough'? Is it 'iconic enough'?  And quite clearly, as you're reading about this on our website, you'll know that our answers were 'yes' and 'yes'.

 

Although the opportunity to privately own a double decker London bus is not unique, this is undoubtedly an iconic piece of motoring history so combine that with the fact it's a sight synonymous with London AND it's really big and eye-catching, this is an opportunity not to be missed.

 

In great condition (especially considering it was built in 1962) this example is just waiting to be used by a business and even though we've had the pleasure of enjoying them ourselves when they've been used as bars, restaurants, Airbnb accommodation, for wedding transport etc maybe you have another use in mind.  There's also the possibility you could simply just use this for yourself – if you've lived in London but perhaps are back in the U.S. or Australia now with more space at home, the bus would make for a spectacular talking point in your garden and would lend itself very well to conversion in to a home office, guest accommodation or even a really cool man 'cave'.

For more information, here's the ebay listing and the link to the Stafford Bus Centre (the seller's website).
