1998 Prevost Le Mirage XL Liberty Conversion Elegant Lady $134995

hello my name is Mayan Shah with our v-max taught us and today I have this 1998 Prevot XL 45 converted by none other than Liberty coach so today I'm gonna take you on the exterior interior and then I'm gonna give you my perspective on how the coach drives so let's get started up front it's actually an excellent condition it's got buttons where you can mount a bra if you'd like to protect it from rock chips and bugs if you'd like to now there are a few little dings if you look at it and from the right perspective very small dings up here you know nothing not nothing out of the normal for a coach this age it's actually in pretty good shape considering this is front it was probably protected by a bra for most of its life now the previous owner actually converted a lot of the lights to LEDs as you can see the headlights or LEDs as well as the fog lights now these are running lights here which look pretty nice but the inside fog lights are also LEDs the glass is in good shape now we do have a little rock chip right here but it looks like it's been sealed so it should not spread at all I actually didn't notice that until we did the first take and I saw it from the right angle but other than that as far as the driving perspective you cannot see that let's take a step around the side here now behind these panels there's a lot of components and wiring and fuses for your chassis side stuff so like your your indicators your fog lights your headlights your windshield wipers things like that and there's actually a beautiful little schematic for that all on this panel when it opens up check out our pictures if you want to see that you have to unscrew these here too look at that now the exterior is an actually amazing condition the previous owner kept this in a climate-controlled garage so when he was not using it this thing was properly kept and he was actually an Air Force pilot so if you're familiar or have any friends who were pilots you know how they maintained their things especially an Air Force pilot so the coach was always taken to I think it was a luxury coaches of East Tennessee which has a fantastic rep when it comes to maintaining high-end coaches like these this is a full pass-through storage here that has to slide out trace one for the passenger side here on the other side and here we have a driver slide slide out tray now we have an outlet right there as well as a fire extinguisher you have a shore power breaker right there let's jump this all the shocks for these compartment doors are in excellent condition as we see I kind of struggled there shutting that compartment door all swinging up now it's got two 4000 watt magnet inverters so you can run your bus airs off of your batteries if you'd like over to the right I believe this is the radiator for the generator all kinds of electrical components for your Coach side electronics and gadgets which this coach has a lot of now again we're gonna take a look here at the condition of the paint excellent condition showing no signs of checking no scratches from trees I can maybe see you some very faint scratches from trees but not really they're mostly non-existent it's an excellent condition all the rivets look great this bottom piece all the the shiny metal looks really nice it's all aluminum I was thinking about getting it polished and if we do that you may have to wear sunglasses while looking at this coach now right here we have our all our sewage and grey tank drainage system as well as controls for filling your water tank you can see right here you have a grey water bypass now you can dump your tanks from either side this is your port side I think this is your port side and the aft side is on the other side I could be wrong but either way you can dump your grain black tank from both sides of the coach as well as plug in to 50 amp power service from both sides now behind this panel right here we have a 20 kilowatt diesel generator now notice it's on four airbags so when this thing runs you actually absolutely do not feel it from inside the coach which is amazing and you barely feel it we have coaches that have 8000 watt generators that are significantly louder than this 20,000 watt generator now it also is on a slide-out tray here which is really nice you can slide it on access it very easily which is different from some other previews that I've seen where it's stuck in there you don't you can't slide that just like a most normal generators now I believe it has about 4500 hours on it let's see yes got 4500 and 2 hours and these generators will go a very very long time they're built to run a lot so 4,500 hours does not scare me at all that is not many hours on this kind of generator shut it again and also the airbags here are in great condition a lot of times you'll see older pre Vosges like this that have not been maintained properly and you'll see airbags that leak they're old and dry rotted and these look great there's no leaks whatsoever we have the generator running for a few hours and again it's something you have to experience and person if you're inside a Prevot with the generator running you know what I'm talking about and until then you really can't judge these coaches based off of other lower non Prevot conversions coaches back here we have our main Julie rear Julie as well as our tag now it's got Michelin tires all around that are about four years old showing no dry rot cracks and have excellent tread again paint super glossy now it's got zip tee awnings all around so all the window awnings as well as the main patio awning which we'll talk about more later are all zip tee and have aluminum shrouds to protect them while they're closed and rolled up right here we have quick and easy access to one of the radiators on this coach and a few others that are hidden behind it everything is built with quality on these rigs and right there is a small compartment and I can get access more things than your engine if you like now we come around back again note the LED tail lights here these are LEDs all of these including the reverse lights as well as the center I believe that's a tail light so when you press the brakes that will come on now this of course is a side mount radiated coach this is mounted with a Detroit series 60 motor which is a lot better than the previous engine they had in these I forget the exact Detroit model but this one makes a lot more power I think this is around 500 horsepower 515 check out this turbo now I've got massive hands you know if you meet me in person or a but look at how big this turbo is it's just so cool seeing a turbo like that I'm honestly very excited to drive this coach a little later my dad actually personally went and picked this up all right I just noticed something so wanted to do a retake up here it shows your your temperature which is pretty nice on your your motor you've got a few other nice gauges here that are useful to mechanics or if you decide to work on on your own now like I mentioned this is a twelve point seven liter Detroit series sixty pop that in close it there's a really satisfying walk now this coach has a 10,000 pound towing capacity and of course this is a Liberty coach elegant lady and you have this beautiful little mud flap here that show it says elegant lady down there let's take a step up on the roof here go away I noticed this as I'm walking up here on the roof too louder now this has an aluminum metal roof so an excellent condition looks shiny looks like it's been clear coated as well because I'm notice over here I'm not sure if you can see it some of the clear coats coming off a little bit up here but no worries you know it's okay they're pretty common up on top of these coaches the spotlight this thing has an amazing horn it's got a super loud bus horn and on top of that it's got ninety nine tunes it's tough to think this thing called an ultimate horn super cool I've got a dish little tailgaters thing here your satellite dish got an antenna these look to be upgraded and much newer roof is an excellent condition on this coach steels look good as well seals look very good check out the awning top they not the only toppers the window awnings here fabric looks good I mean it's a little dusty but besides that the condition of them which is what matters looks good looks very good all right not much to say about the roof here besides the fact that it looks excellent alright I'm gonna take a step back down on the bottom completes it another cool thing I think I forgot to mention that it's got a life is good on them back here that's pretty awesome and by the way that is an upgraded backup monitor camera so not the original one it's a new color backup camera but the life is good looks fantastic it's exactly what you're gonna be thinking when you're going down the road if you decide to purchase this coach life is good you got a got a nice new to you Prevot it's an excellent condition and you're about to hit the road and travel we're a v1 on it but I'm gonna start here in the back right here we have more access to the engine as well as a 12-volt cut off and a 24 volt cutoff right there I believe this right here is your compressor if your air conditioning system no it doesn't blow and tire very cold so I think it needs to be charged up not sure but really if you're running down the road and you know it's hot and you're trying to cool your coach off the dash here you may not want to be looking at approval right now now we're all in the passenger side here we see the Julie again as well as her tag it's got alcohol aluminum wheels all the way around they're in excellent condition again paints looking great the colors are excellent on this Motorhome looks pretty amazing again the condition of this patio awning is an excellent shape showing no cracks you know no fading no rips whatsoever like I said it's got that aluminum shroud cover so when it's closed it's not sitting there getting eaten up by the UV rays things like that right here we've got the monitoring system for our tanks as well as it's got one of these on the other side and a few more on the inside of the coach as well so right here you've got a nice little outside shower very high-quality outside shower not plastic and you can actually open this up which is pretty cool back there is your water heater and right here is your water pump this creates this coach creates Fant SiC water pressure as you can see that's a huge water pump let's go to shut this now you have more you know controls here looks starboard dump water tank fill it's got a master ater just like on the newer coaches even though this is a 98 it's got a lot of features that even newer coaches don't even have now the pre votes have always been on the absolute cutting edge as far as technology goes OOP didn't shut that and they'll put amazing features in here for instance you can run your air conditioners off of your batteries now show me a brand new coach right now they can do that you know maybe besides a pre bow and a few other one or two other coaches because really most coaches that are new or cannot do that unless you have a pre bow right here this is really cool you have an outside grill now this is an all electric coach so there's no propane this is an electric grill here right here it looks like there's probably a TV here in the past but it's still got the outlets and you've got the cabled things so if you'd like to put a TV you can we've got the drawers here storage compartments one more down here oh look at this I believe this is you're not sure what this is this may be for some windows or these are little covers with buttons so I'm not sure extra accessories that go with the coach just back down again air shocks on these doors are in great shape the paint out here is in great shape now here's that front pass-through storage compartment again with your slide-out tray locks in place right here we've got more storage maybe these outside storage compartments are built with quality they really didn't not did not cheap out on anything I mean everything feels very well built out of great materials very little plastic throughout the coach inside and out now it has a doorbell which is pretty cool as well as a keyless entry keypad before you take a step inside here to check out the it's got tile on your steps it looks super luxurious let's take a step inside this coach all right we're on the interior of this coach now and the first thing you notice is how glamorous it looks in here we've got this beautiful chandelier over here lots of fancy lighting and accent lighting you've got mirrors I've got an upgraded Samsung Refrigerator behind me all the the tile on the floor is got tile throughout the coach which is really nice feature you don't see that often an older coach and it's just outstanding in here so let's get started with the front you've got two opposing couches here you've got black leather upholstery that's an excellent condition and showing no cracking or fading or anything like that you've got a control center up here now this coach has central locking for all your outside compartment doors as well as your main entry door and you've got the control for your entry door lock right here and the control for your cargo doors locks right by the door so you can just quickly open it up and unlock your doors now let's take a step into the dinette and kitchen area now check out this beautiful chandelier here it's a really nice touch and you've got again black leather upholstery on this dinette now all along on both sides under the windows this is all looks like a granite or quartz beautiful touch there all the compartment doors have automatic lights that come on when you open them up every single compartment in this coach now a lot of the lights in here have been turned into LEDs obviously not the chandelier lights and the accent lights but these main ceiling lights and some of the compartment lights are actually have been turned into le I've been changed to LEDs which is really nice I've got a sharp convection microwave oven right here we've got a dual burner electric stovetop and this is one of my favorite pieces right here because I love coffee got a little built in coffee maker it's pretty nice compact saves space and you can close it and keep it out of sight and I'd like to I like the fact that they have like a little vent here um so you can have it closed and when it's making coffee the aroma is more aroma will come out because nothing's better than you know getting up in the morning and turning your coffeemaker on and smelling that coffee smell that's got a huge insert right here for your sink that's a pretty deep sink and this comes off go and put this back in it fits very snugly which means it's very unlikely that it's gonna rattle and also you barely see it the seams when you're just looking at it so it just looks like one smooth piece of piece of granite or a course or what I'd looks like probably quartz now a nice little accent of gold around here right here you've got a you know paper towel rack more storage there's a lot of storage in this coach notice here there's one of the lights that's been turned into LEDs or change to LEDs more storage over here now you've got a nice you know nice glass cup holders up here it's a very glamorous way of storing it and there's four on the bottom so you could put you know not these I don't even know what these are called but just a cup then you know something you put UC whiskey in that's something maybe you'd see wine or champagne and wine glasses but not I'm not talking about wine glasses with a whiskey cup or something I don't know what it's called I'm 19 so I don't drink I don't know what these things now you've got more spaces right here for cups there's some things that you don't see in newer coaches some styles that's one of them I check out the floor it's like a Northwest and it's a Creek a compass design here in the floor it's beautiful you got one here and you've got one in the back as well now as we step towards the center of the coach we have our main control area here now this has four bus airs two controls for two of the buses right here you've got a front control for a bus air up front and then one more in the back now you've got two or murders like I said you can run your air conditioners off those two inverters you got all the light controls water pump generator I've got auto start for your generator tank fill is just showing what's coming in and what your how much power you're using obviously you got all your breaker right breakers right here now a lot of these lights are have dimmers even with the LEDs which is nice they chant which means I think you have to change the ballasts out if you want to have dimming LEDs which is really nice another upgrade is the samsung household refrigerator it's had a huge refrigerator here and it has an ice maker and I've crushed or cubed now I didn't mention the Samsung Smart TV we'll talk about that a little later it's got upgraded TVs in here a lot of storage in here pantry space or whatever you'd like to put in more space right here there's a lot of stores you've got there are some mats and floor mats that go with the coach but I took them I kind of put them up because I think it looks really good with the with just two all tile all right if you stand right there it's got a pocket door right here it's a pneumatic pocket door so you flip up I like the fact there you know there's obviously control over there and there's a control on this side of the door and their little covers so you can't accidentally press them you got to really know what you want them closed so all you do is open the flap push the button a little flap comes open and it closes it's really like being in a Star Wars spaceship most all pre boats have this feature but if you're new to pre votes it's a really cool thing to see now let's step into this bathroom and this is one heck of a glamorous bathroom so again you got that little compass design in the floor beautiful tile with this black quartz or looks like granite back here I'll check out the shower this is one of the most beautiful showers I've seen look at the tile and the amount of space is uh spectacular as well let me step in there real quick just to give you a concept of how large it is it's a good bit of space you got also these waterproof lights in here to keep you well lit and I've taken a shower in another Prevot we had weight of 2000 model had a very similar water pump the pressure in here is like household or if not better than household but again this is really neat I like the fact I take very long shower so I like the fact that there's it's not just a regular circular or square shower I've got this little thing here I don't know it makes it feel a little more special than it already is just quite looking at it I'm just gonna leave my shoes off got a porcelain toilet down there that is push-button of course now in here this coach has a washer/dryer stack on top give her the dryer down below you have the washer now the coach the bathroom feels really big I think mainly because of the mirrors but this beautiful sink here the glamorous sink obviously all the controls you can dim the ceiling lights in here not sure why you'd want to dim the lights but you can you have that option obviously you have switch lights all kinds of other automatic fill you have that gray you've got the dump so what's really nice if you're sitting in here and you you know you notice aw crap you know my gray tank is full I want to continue taking shower you can quickly come push if you're plugged into full hookups you could push a button and dump your tanks real quick you don't have to go out of the coach that's very nice down here obviously you have the control for your pocket door because the door for your bathroom is also pneumatic and there is a control outside of the bathroom which I'm gonna press to open it back up which is nice but there's a lock here so if you want to lock it you can just push this button and walk it so someone can't just open the door on you okay in the bathroom alright let's walk down the hallway and one thing I'll mention is the bathroom is completely separate from the rest of the coach meaning we have a hallway going from the bedroom to the front of the coach so you can you know still have people if you have more than two people or if you just have one person you don't have to invade their privacy and the you know if you have two people you don't have to invade the other person's privacy while they're using the bathroom if you want to get to the bedroom and to the front of the coach like most RVs you have to walk through the bathroom to get to the bedroom so that's a nice little thing that has the hallway going down here again all along the hallway we have storage compartments and again beautiful stone I'm just gonna call it stone from now on cuz I'm pretty sure this is quartz but we're gonna call it stone all along here and down through the hallways a beautiful looking hallway now we're back in the bedroom and again tile in the bedroom I know that's a modern thing nowadays 95 to 99 percent of people I meet prefer to have a hard surface especially tile throughout the coach on the right side of our bed here we've got a large wardrobe very large wardrobe and there's also a little slot for your sink cover so if you want to keep the sink cover off you can store it quickly right there so let's see let me show you how large this is I can step back here I can stand in this I'm almost 6 foot tall 6 feet tall again automatic LED light and this has some kind of tape over it I'm assuming maybe it's cracked under there that's why they have the tape there now over here we have this beautiful lamp and the control for the rear air conditioner we've got dimmers for all the lights you've got the front reading light ass reading light room ceiling lights you can dim it and then you have all sorts of controls now I really like this so again you can undo the flap to you know access the important buttons like your generator dresser vista oh I took a little accidently anyways so you can lock your bay doors here and when they're locked it will not light up now when they are unlocked your bay doors unlocked light will come on so you know when they're locked and unlocked it's very clear there's no interpretation that needs to be happening to know if your front door and your compartment doors are locked and unlock you can also start your generator here and things like that you've got a carbon monoxide detector right by your head here which is pretty nice temperature you've got a indoor/outdoor temperature monitor so that's nice you wake up in the morning you know exactly what temperature is inside and outside of your coach now we've got more storage compartments now all throughout it it's got these little I press it I think these are a different maybe a carb another carbon sensor or some kind of other gas sensor it's kind of few of them throughout they look they fit with the coach but they look aftermarket it's nice to have those things whatever they are um extra safety can't hurt got more storage in here worn here now here's sort of the crown jewel of your wardrobe storage we've got this huge wardrobe back here simply massive you've actually got a power outlet over there as well now um so you're thinking how do you get back to your you know clothes that you have on this rack in the back of course this is on a carousel that's electric so you just press a button you know you've got your very nice clothes here then you can go all the way back and you've got your you know Jamaica beach clothes right right back up on the front so nice control here felt on the bottom good use of large amount of space makes it a lot more accessible and easy to use you've got all kinds of drawers here you got a radio back here with an upgraded Alpine Bluetooth head unit all kinds of storage again beautiful countertops here now we've got another upgraded Samsung Smart TV in the back and check out this little piece down here it's really cool it feels like a suede leather or Alcantara just a nice little touch in the bedroom here alright let's step back into the front of the coach I just want to show you that Smart TV up in the front and I'm gonna talk about the cockpit area and what it's like to access all the controls in the front of the coach by the way this has automatic air leveling which kind of surprised me so up front we've got this looks to be about a 40 inch TV maybe a thirty I'm not sure what size decently 32 inch 32 inch Smart TVs Samsung it's actually connected to Amazon right now so that's pretty cool now sitting here in the the driver seat you really feel like a pilot or you're sitting in the cockpit of an of a 747 because all these buttons are you know super bright colors and they're kind of in-your-face but don't let that intimidate you these are mostly pretty simple buttons you've got it's just got a lot of gadgets so you got gauge lights you know board toe board lights so bay door locks you know I've got controls for all your air conditioners in the back you know we've got water tank fill you can dump your tanks from here you've got your macerator control here I'm not sure why I guess if you're in the coach and you want to dump your tanks you want to have your master raid you can turn it on so that's pretty nice you got two buttons you got a button here that says Liberty coach so I guess these are you can accessory switches so if you wanted to add something you can now over to the left we have cruise control give your controls for you six speed push button Allison Transmission now right here is your control for your air leveling system you can manually do it but it also has an automatic so you just click it over and I'll automatically level itself up and the third switch position on this little switch is Road so when you go on the road and by the way this is what I talked about on the roof it's got that cool horn so the regular horn extremely loud then on top of that you've got this little guy so it's called the ultimate horn so we're on zero got that whole herd you've got one through you've got a hundred different tunes you can play on this horn so here's to number 90 that's pretty cool you can really make your presence known if you'd like back there are controls you can dump your airbag there's some basic controls that most RVs have you have your you can quickly you can have a fast idle that's probably just got a switch for fast idle engine brake control horn selects it's got a regular car horn your bus horn you've got fog light controls now the fog lights we had on in the beginning of the video or the running lights they're like the little u-shaped lights that look really cool but also to have those Center lights come on you switch it to that and the center of fog lights come on which are much brighter than the running lights dog you've got a lot more switches here here's the air conditioner up here co-chair and a few other cool things so also this is pretty cool this lights up so it shows you what's going on you know twelve old master by the way check out that backup monitor there's an excellent quality backup monitor aftermarket because the 98 backup monitor is probably not nearly as nice as this one and it looks like an upgraded Pioneer head unit as well Bluetooth audio has Bluetooth audio by the way this TVs already hooked up to the surround sound here so that's really nice alright let's go get this thing off the road I have been so excited to drive this coach and I'm really excited about to do it so let's go get it on the highway alright we're going on the highway now with this coach and this is uh this is probably one of the best RVs I've ever driven let me rephrase that one of the best motor coaches I've ever written driven this thing is amazing it's so smooth it's so quiet and now I understand why has that extra air pneumatic lock on the door because I pushed that button and it sucked it in super tight this thing rides so very very smoothly this is amazing I'm gonna set cruise control here let's see should have looked at this before I got on the highway I'll play with that when I take an exit I really don't want to look down too much we're cruising at 65 miles an hour and it's just butter it's like riding on to quote James May from Top Gear a double whipped cream a waterfall of double whipped cream it's got plenty of power too we had a release of 95 and the previous generation Detroit had significantly less power the series 60 is a fantastic engine it's got a lot of power there's no problem moving itself around but this thing as far as smoothness quietness it's amazing and by the way this is on an air suspension this little chair is got an airbag so you know as you go over a bump the suspension will absorb you know the vibrations and your seat will also absorb any extra vibrations it's got a bluetooth audio sound system I talked about that earlier I turned it up it's pretty solid engine brake works great I'm gonna turn it off because I like coasting this thing drives so well it's honestly undescribable you know if you if you're a Prevot fan and you're you've already got a crevo you're looking for your next Prevot then i really don't need to sell you on this but if you haven't gotten the Prevot and you've never driven one and you're wondering why a 1998 Prevot cost so much please come take a look at one and if you're serious enough I'll let you drive it and you'll really understand why coaches are so expensive when they're new and why they hold their value so much the build quality is top-notch there's really nothing above a Prevot build quality chassis wise interior wise especially with Liberty you know because of the three top premier brands there are a few others and I would include for travel so for travel venturi marathon Liberty coach I think Liberty coach is probably the top dog as far as coach conversion although for travel gives them a run for their money they're newer conversions do but back in the day this was it Liberty coach has been around longer than anyone else that I'm aware of and holy the sea is so smooth it's unbelievably quiet i I really don't hear the engine the only time I hear the engine I'm in here and these under these bridges I kind of hear it but I'm gonna I'm gonna shut up for a second and see if you can hear the engine I don't think you'll be able to because I can barely hear it and I don't think the microphones gonna pick it up so here's me accelerating on the bio it's revving two grand right now still at two grand that's fifty miles an hour that's 55 at 60 that's 65 this is phenomenally quiet for a bus this is amazing this is the rolls-royce of motor coaches so and I have my boost pressure important gauges like that but with the comment of the fact that this is the rolls-royce of motor coaches I think it's time to end the in the video and I really I I can see why you could do hundreds of miles and get out and still be you know fresh ready to go this thing does not beat you up is so comfortable a nice cup holder here at my cup of coffee it's got an altitude meter over there by the way which is kind of cool this is amazing the way this drives this is why I was excited I knew who's gonna drive very well but I did not expect it to drive this well because this honestly rides better than our 2000 model Prevot that we had that was a venturi built Revo aged 345 so and by the way I know it is an XL it's a Lim ROG XL but a lot of people just refer to them as Excel 45 because it's 45 feet long anyways that will conclude it this is an amazing RV quality wise to build build quality is amazing it's been maintained by an Air Force pilot at East Tennessee luxury motor coaches with motor coaches with a very reputable dealer they do a lot of servicing on big high-end coaches like this one and that is really what differentiates coaches of this age is the maintenance of them so in this one you can look inside and out crawl up under it this thing has been maintained very well so with that we're gonna end the video because I'm gonna start repeating myself because I'm just in all of this coach so if you have any more questions or want to schedule an appointment to come take a look at it please call or text eight six four four zero four zero zero five four thank you so much for watching
