Vehicle Description
The Hanomag F25 was produced by German truck, tractor and transport
manufacturer Hanomag-Henschel. Although the company was sold to
Diamler-Benz in late 1970, the lightweight F25 bus design continued
to be produced under the Mercedes brand for years to come. This
1970 example is among the last of the Hanomag-Henschel vehicles
that was sent to General Propulsion to be converted into the iconic
Combi camper van in the same vein as the original VW Combi's.
Although similar to the VW in many ways, the Hanomag employed a
front-engine, front-wheel drive configuration and was powered by a
Mercedes inline 4 cylinder dies-el engine. This design allowed for
more space in the rear and a flat rear surface which created a much
roomier living area.
Features of the camper conversion include a Norcold refrigerator
for keeping supplies cold, a Rocket water filtration system for
clean water, convertible dual sofa/table area that becomes sleeping
space for two adults, on-board sink, storage cabinetry and more.
With the passenger side sun visor pulled down, this makes for a
perfect get away vehicle to create you own beach front view or
mountain escape.
This Hanomag appears to be in original, unrestored condition and is
solid and sound. The diesel engine runs and drives strong, albeit a
little cranky in the morning and in cold weather, typical of older
diesel engines. These Vans were never sold in the US, making this
Hanomag a far more rare vehicle among a field of VW Combis.
