Bürstner A748-2 – 2005 (05 Reg) – L700 SHY
Twin-Axle | 2.8L JTD | 6-Berth | 6 Travelling Seatbelts
Mileage: 60,000
Condition: High-End German Flagship – Professional Off-Grid Power Overhaul
Motorhomepig is incredibly proud to offer this 2005 Bürstner A748-2. As a flagship twin-axle model from one of Germany’s most prestigious manufacturers, the A748-2 is a "land yacht" in every sense. This vehicle is a rare find, combining a cavernous 6-berth/6-belt layout with a modern, high-capacity Lithium off-grid power system that allows for total independence. Meticulously maintained by a professional mechanic, this Bürstner offers the build quality of a premium German liner at an accessible price point.
The "Argos" Luxury Suite Layout:
Permanent Master Beds: Features a large fixed double bed at the rear and a spacious, permanent double bed over the cab. Both offer domestic-standard comfort without the need to shuffle cushions daily.
Convertible Central Lounge: The mid-section features a spacious dinette that effortlessly converts into a third double bed, bringing the total sleeping capacity to six.
6 Legal Travelling Seatbelts: A true family-hauler, this vehicle is equipped with six belted seats, allowing the whole group to travel in safety.
Gourmet Kitchen & Split Washroom: Includes a large 3-burner hob, oven, and a 12V compressor fridge. The washroom features a completely separate shower cubicle, ensuring a home-from-home experience.
Massive Off-Grid Power Specification:
This Argos has been professionally upgraded with a power system that rivals modern expedition vehicles:
200Ah Lithium Battery: Offering significantly more usable power and faster charging than standard lead-acid batteries.
800W Solar Array: A massive solar setup paired with a 20-amp solar charger to keep you powered indefinitely in the summer.
Advanced Charging: Includes a 40-amp DC-DC charger (to charge the lithium bank rapidly while driving) and a 2000W Inverter for running 240V appliances like hair dryers or coffee machines without a hookup.
Transparent Condition & Maintenance Notes:
At Motorhomepig, we pride ourselves on absolute transparency so buyers can view with complete confidence:
Mechanic Owned: This vehicle is owned by a professional mechanic who is providing total peace of mind by performing a fresh Service and MOT prior to sale.
Structural Integrity: Known for their robust German construction, this Bürstner has been maintained to a high standard, with a habitation check performed prior to the current owner's purchase.
Licence Profile: As a 5-tonne twin-axle flagship, this vehicle has an MTPLM of 5,000kg. Buyers will require a Category C1 on their driving licence.
Integrity: Supplied with 2 sets of keys and confirmed HPI clear with no outstanding finance.
Broker's Note:
The Bürstner 748-2 is legendary for its massive internal space and stable towing platform. Finding one that has been mechanically pampered by a professional and then fitted with several thousand pounds worth of Lithium and Solar tech is incredibly rare. It is the ultimate "full-timer" or long-distance family tourer—honest, robust, and technologically ahead of its time.
