1994 Isuzu Elf 250 4.3l Diesel – 17′ Long, 18 MPG

For Sale: A unique 1994 Elf Motorhome imported directly from Japan. Lovingly upgraded and maintained by experienced camper enthusiasts.

Background: We’re selling our cherished Elf, hoping to find it a new home. After buying it from a local Japanese vehicle importer, my partner and I meticulously refurbished it for a memorable 3-month New England road trip. This is our third camper remodel, and by far, our favorite.

Highlights:

• Compact Size: Sleek styling fitting any parking spot or small campsite.
• Fuel Efficiency: Nearly 20 MPG under 55 MPH and a consistent 17 MPG even in challenging conditions.
• Off-road Capabilities: RWD with dual rear tires, good ground clearance, short wheel base, and an unmatched turning radius.
• Driving Experience: Built on the Elf 250 medium-duty truck chassis, this camper provides both comfort and visibility thanks to its large windows and new shocks. Right-hand drive is easy to adapt to, given its narrow structure.
• Interior Design: Cozy and efficient layout, perfect for 1-2 people living full-time.
• Both beds are full size
