Hi Joel,


The situation is completely rational: the owner toured north america
in the bus, and wasn't able to sell it before they had to return to
the UK.


I remember hearing about a UK owner trying to unload a bus locally
late last year; it wouldn't surprise me if that was the same one.


Happy Trails,
