Someone got a pretty good deal on an old RV this past weekend.
A very old one.
What is believed to be the oldest existing motorhome was auctioned by Bonhams in the U.K. for $75,000.
That is about half the average price of a new Class A motor home today, according to Camper Report.

The Ford Model T-based vehicle was built in 1914 for the family that founded the Bentalls department store chain.
It has sleeping for four and a cast iron stove for heating and cooking, plus a mail slot in the side door for extended stays.
The vehicle had been abandoned for several decades before being refurbished in the 1970s with the help of a cabinetmaker, and it remains in functional condition.
Despite what seems like a relatively low price for such an unusual collectible, the final bid on the 1914 vehicle was actually about twice the pre-sale estimate.

The SUV-like vehicle featured rear seats that folded into a bed and had portable cooking and toilet equipment stored under the front seats.
