  Important Vehicle Status & Project Note

  • Project Vehicle: This motorhome is being strictly marketed as a project van / trade sale, priced significantly below market value to reflect the work required. It is ideally suited for skilled mechanical buyers or fabricators.

  • Required Repairs: A recent MOT inspection highlighted significant structural failures. Estimated repair costs are approximately £8,500, which primarily includes extensive welding repairs required for the spring mounts.

  • Pricing: The vehicle has been significantly discounted to allow the next owner the budget and scope to undertake these repairs safely.

Motorhome pig is excited to offer this battle-ready 2004 Trigano Tribute. Don't let the mileage fool you; this van has been meticulously maintained where it counts. Built on the indestructible 2.3 JTD Fiat chassis, this "off-grid" specialist has been professionally welded to address common age-related front top-mount rust. It is a highly efficient, reliable tourer that has recently proven its mettle on a 3-week off-grid expedition with zero hook-up required.

Versatile Living & Smart Layout

The Trigano Tribute was a game-changer when launched, offering a high-end feel in a manoeuvrable panel van conversion:

• The Lounge: A very sociable front lounge featuring a large side sofa and swivelling captain’s chairs. This area feels incredibly open for a van of this size.

• Sleeping: The lounge seating effortlessly converts into a large, comfortable double bed.

• Rear Washroom: A full-width rear washroom that includes a cassette toilet and a shower—a rare luxury in a van conversion that provides a private "dressing room" feel.

• Safe Travel: Unlike many 2-berth vans, this features 3 travelling seatbelts.

Elite Off-Grid Setup

This van has been specifically modified to stay away from campsites for weeks at a time:

• Solar Power: Roof-mounted solar panels feed a healthy 100Ah deep-cycle leisure battery.

• Advanced Refrigeration: The original 3-way fridge has been replaced with a 60L Compressor Cool Box. This unit is significantly more reliable and efficient, staying ice-cold even in high summer temperatures.

• Heating: Equipped with a Webasto diesel heater that draws directly from the main fuel tank, providing instant warmth without the need for bulky gas bottles.

Mechanical & Maintenance Highlights

• Fuel Efficiency: The 2.3 JTD engine is a workhorse, achieving a respectable 35 MPG, making long-distance touring affordable.

• Kitchen: Features a gas hob, grill, and sink with running water, providing all the essentials for van-life cooking.
  Peace of Mind: The current owner is putting the van through a fresh MOT next month, ensuring it is road-legal until 2027.

Honest Notes & Broker's Insights

This Trigano Tribute is an "honest van" in every sense. While the electric step is currently non-functional, the mechanical and electrical heart of this motorhome is superior to many younger vans. The conversion from a standard 3-way fridge to a dedicated compressor unit is a massive upgrade for those who dislike the temperamental nature of older gas fridges.
