The seller who's a writer with the very flowery style of writing & is based in the south east crops up on ebay from time to time. Some of his info is just pure waffle.
I have a 1984 Auto-Sleeper solid sided pop-top & although there are a few similarities, it is really quite different in lay-out. The window behind the driver is generally louvred on an A/S. In the photos the fridge is in the A/S position with the cupboard to the right but the sink & hob/grill are reversed. Where the buddy seat is my camper has a tall cupboard. The rear seat in my camper is set well back & has a corner seat on each side.
The wardrobe is on it's own in the n/s rear corner. The bed is full width apart from the back cushion which has to allow for the wardrobe.
If you can let me have your e-mail address I will try to send you some photos.

Hakuna ...
That pretty much nails it ... if they sold tin tops + a devon or other popper has been added at a later date, would explain ..
Even the Ziz[ahh'zig'ahhh] units in the right place ..
This is deffo from Salford Leisuredrive ...............

A note here that Autosleeper conversions come with a certificate of build and a list of items fitted...mine has a number on it
does that mean it's logged in a dusty vault some where?
it could be an old phone number though

Yep, leisuredrive did a pop-top without the rear cargo area. If you look at the slideshow within the ebay listing (the link is just below the first pic in the listing); you can see the "Leisuredrive" emboss.
Deffinitely no autosleeeper; in fact, did the autosleeper not have windows all round rather than a blank rear quarter on the offside?
