RARE Japanese Import - 1992 Mazda Bongo Brawny Motor Home | 4WD | Only 37,048 Miles | Right-Hand Drive | Diesel
This is a genuine JDM import, a 1992 Mazda Bongo Brawny Motor Home, imported with full paperwork, original manuals, and a clean Washington State title. If you're looking for a small, easy-to-drive camper that still has plenty of room for the whole family (or friends), this camper is a really unique setup.
We’ve enjoyed 6 great years of Eastern Washington and Oregon coast camping trips, and overnight ski trips up at Crystal Mountain regularly hosting 4 adults with all our ski gear and one small dog. The compact size makes it surprisingly easy to drive and park while still giving you everything you need for comfortable camping.
