Only because they're cool and don't come up often. BMW Diesel 5 speed, and fits in a one car garage. Roof opens via one side hinged.

I, too, was living on the edge of a broken heart.
I'll always have a soft spot for the funky and oddball motorhomes of the 70s and 80s, especially these and the GMCs.

Edited out the whatever was there, take another look. Gen 1 the roof pops up, Gen 2 has a hard shell, doesn't open, won't fit in a one car garage and has a GM V-6 that over heats.
I like the idea of a Beemer grille and M stripes along the rocker, turning up into the air intake.
I think parts are unobtainable so it would not be ideal as a worry free camping and travel platform.
In reply to Jerry :
Being quite familiar with them, I was not!
They are better made than average. They do have a following. He is still double it's actually sale value.
I couldn't afford it at $10K. But I'd probably ask for more information/pictures, and see where it might go. At 20? Nope.
If only Vixen (the band) used a Vixen (the motorhome) as a tour vehicle, towing a few motorcycles, of course.
(Full Disclosure: I have a copy of that record in the collection.)
The long defunct BMW dealer that was in my town sold them when new. I have some pictures of them on the lot.
