Looks like it's last use was as a B&B. I used to run one in Plymouth many years ago and the inside layout was somewhat similar. The sides of the stairways are boarded up for fire insurance requirements and to stop drunks falling or being pushed over the sides. Our bar was very profitable - dingy but profitable. We used to let our rooms to some rather shifty looking people, and also as one-nighters to sailors when the big ships were in town, so they had somewhere to take the local working girls they picked up for the night. It was the type of place that Norton would probably stay at if he was in town. Great video as always, keep it up lads.

DVLA guy here the mot ran out on the 19th of July 2019! Its low millage but has a millage warning it reads 65k but that's a mot tester error it's actually only done 6k miles!! Hence why the engine looks brand new I hope someone saves it ASAP :(44 years old 2 litre petrol

That's worth a few quid, anything old and being a campervan, could fetch £1,000's.

Agreed on the exterior vs interior. Looks grand outside but the inside was rank. I wonder what it actually was? I don't think it looks like a hotel, flats, house or even old people's home.

You can knock down building things attached to houses. You often find the end terrace in a row located in an area where there's lots of subsidence starts to collapse and ends up having to be knocked down. What was the interior wall of the end house becomes the external end wall of the terrace. It's a pain in the arse to do though. I think I'd be quite concerned if my house was attached to a crumbling old pile like that. It can only lead to issues.

Thanks for another great adventure guys !!! Can't get enough of you all ✌️❤

Top Job Chaps 🤘

You are very brave boys!!!

That plasterboard n shite was called modernisation and generally happened in the 60s. Noone wanted the old traditional look they wanted straight lines. Flat n atomic. We had a beautiful Victorian sandstone built house in Bristol my dad spent all his time peeling thus ceap off to reveal marble fireplaces, staircases bannisters n mantle pieces. It just kept on revealing.

Its a shame the transits don't go for as much as escorts and such. You can get a running and driving mk1 for about £10k.

Loved the camper I'd love to restore it, I'm with Al my pickup truck is the same way past the E check restored and driving!

Might be an idea to buy that camper, prices are on the up. fit a 2.5 diesel engine from a mk3-5 for fuel economy and the ability to run on used vegetable oil using a twin tank system assuming its bosch injector pump.

I’d say once a house, then a naughty girls and boys home?! Stopped them sliding down the stairs with some blocking up!😂

That mk1 transit will be worth a fair bit. There hard to find and it looks like it wasn’t abandoned to long ago.

can you get the skinny fella to get rid of jimmy savills coat

Old MK1 bullnose transit, rare old sight now. The nose was originally added to accommodate the York Diesel engine, but they are shite, so you’d want a 2.9 Cosworth V6 in there instead. Norton is right though, it has had a new engine put in it, that’s a Ford Pinto. It’s registered as a 2L petrol and the 2L petrol engines that came in them were Essex V4s. Guessing the Pinto has a bit more oomph to deal with the extra weight, and will actually fit since it’s a bullnose.
