Looks nice, although I don't quite understand the furnishings.

i looked into a coach like this one. not this one but similar. my guess is it was a european formula 1 racers coach.
the seat looks new so i would guess it has been redone. the fridge is italian and the washer dryer are european as well.
so it would have been built for europe most likely. so, in the one i inquired about it had been converted to europe power..
it is really pretty i have to admit

Not sure I understand the layout. Is there a bed in back at all?

"Is this the first front entry Newell?"
May very well be. This one was right at the end of the model year 2001's (maybe the LAST 2001 since we KNOW 608 is a 2002 don't we Tom) and I don't know of another front entry Newell until mid to late model year 2002 (thanks Chappell). It is also one of if not the first Newell over 46'. Coach 596, also a 2001, was 46' 0" and this one is 46' 8" based on the VIN.
The SMEG refrigerators are certainly pricey for their size. $1,999 for a 9.22 cubic foot with 1 ice cube tray (no ice maker). 10 amp, 120 volt (at least the US version).
Very different and I love the paint job.
Good question on the bed issue. Many of the race coaches didn't have a bed in them.

Michael, MOT has just got in a 2002 that is a front entry with 4 slides. The # is 623 or 627, I forget which. Not pictured yet on their web.

It also had 2 drop down screens one in bed room one in bedroom for projection tv's.. I think this one goes for under 200k because it's so European.. Maybe 150.. I think it would take 60 at the factory to "fix" the interior

Thank you so much Chappell. I corrected my earlier post. I especially appreciate the photo of the Manufacturer's Plate.
