Call Mahesha on 0488 363 230 – express your interest.

There’s something brewing beyond the ordinary.

It hisses, it steams, it turns heads. It doesn’t just serve coffee — it serves theatre. A full-bodied experience with notes of adventure, invention, and nostalgia.

It’s not just a van. It’s a show on wheels.

And now, it could be yours.

Meet the Wagon

Perched on sturdy wheels and forged in the fires of imagination, this coffee wagon is a masterpiece of brass, leather, rivets, and copper. Inspired by Victorian sci-fi and powered by modern barista tech, it’s a steampunk lover’s dream — an alchemist’s lab fused with an espresso engine.

This isn’t a retrofitted trailer someone slapped a sticker on. This is a rolling work of art — designed from the ground up to stop people in their tracks, start conversations, and sell damn good coffee.

Every inch is a talking point. Every latte comes with a story.

And now, the story is about to take a new turn.

Why This Wagon? Why Now?

 

Because it’s more than a vehicle. It’s a lifestyle. A calling card. A community magnet.

This wagon doesn’t just make you money. It makes you known.

  • At festivals, it becomes a landmark.
  • At markets, it draws a crowd before the first bean is ground.
  • On social media, it becomes content you don’t have to invent — people share it, film it, and pose beside it like it’s a steampunk celebrity.

 

It’s already got a fanbase. What it needs now is a new captain to take the helm.

Your friend — the current owner and builder — has lovingly crafted this creation over years. They’re moving on to a new chapter, and the wagon deserves someone who sees not just a coffee machine, but a magical engine of connection.

If you’ve ever dreamed of running your own coffee business…

Or always wanted to be the centrepiece of a steampunk event…

Or you’re already in the food van world and you want the showstopper…

This is your moment.

 

The Origin Story — Born From Brass, Beans & Burning Ideas

This wagon wasn’t born in a factory. It was summoned into being by a tinkerer’s mind and a dreamer’s heart.

The frame is vintage, but the vision is timeless. Stripped, rebuilt, and reimagined — the shell became a stage, the engine a soundtrack, and the coffee, the signature flourish.

Your friend — a well-known steampunk artisan in regional NSW — spared no detail. Every gauge, pipe, and fixture was sourced or handmade. The copper finishings aren’t just stuck on — they’re part of the soul of the wagon.

The coffee setup? Fully operational and commercially certified. It runs like a dream and pours like a professional setup. Whether you’re new to coffee or a seasoned barista, you’ll step in and be ready to trade from day one.

It’s compliant. It’s powerful. And most importantly — it’s completely unique.

 

What’s Inside the Wagon?

Let’s talk specs — because behind the spectacle is a very capable piece of coffee tech.

  • Commercial-grade espresso machine, regularly serviced
  • One grinder
  • Fridges, jug washer, and storage — all council-approved layout
  • Hot water and greywater systems onboard
  • Solar setup + external power inlet
  • Permits and food van compliance documents
  • Steam piping and mechanical levers that actually function — not just for show
  • Square and iPad for Point of Sale.

And on top of the equipment — you get a ready-made brand. This van has traded at steampunk events, fantasy fairs, vintage markets, music festivals, and country shows. It’s earned media. It’s been photographed thousands of times.

You could rebrand it if you really wanted — but honestly, you’d be mad to.

It’s got a name. It’s got a history. All it needs is your future.

 

Who Buys a Steampunk Coffee Wagon? Someone Like You.

This isn’t for everyone. Let’s be clear. It’s not for the soulless corporate type or someone who just wants a vending machine on wheels.

This is for the performer, the artisan, the dreamer with a business streak.

 

If you:

  • Love talking to people and turning customers into fans
  • Want to make a living doing something you believe in
  • Want to stand out in a crowded market (literally and metaphorically)
  • Are ready to hit the road and build your own empire, one latte at a time

 

Then this wagon isn’t just a good fit — it’s destiny.

You can park it in front of your workshop. You can book it into events. You can even build a permanent setup with it as a centrepiece.

The possibilities are as endless as your imagination.

 

The Story You’ll Be Selling — and Living

Let’s be honest — coffee is everywhere. But character is rare.

This wagon gives you both.

When people approach, they smile. They want to know more. They ask for a photo before they ask for a flat white. You don’t have to chase customers — they come to you.

And when you serve them their drink, they remember it. Because it wasn’t just a caffeine hit — it was an experience.

That’s what sells. That’s what grows a loyal customer base.

And that’s what makes this van different. It’s not just what it does — it’s how it makes people feel.

 

The Numbers Make Sense Too

We can talk art and wonder all day — but let’s talk practical.

Here’s what you’re getting:

  • A fully self-contained, council-compliant coffee business
  • All equipment included
  • Steampunk branding, props, and external décor
  • Road-registered, roadworthy vehicle
  • Revenue history and event schedule (optional)
  • Owner handover support available

 

Whether you want to earn $1,000 a week doing weekend gigs or launch a full-time coffee career — the setup is here.

No rent. No landlord. Just your schedule and your hustle.

With the right events and marketing (and a little help from our steampunk community), you can recoup your investment fast.

 

Why Is It For Sale?

The owner is starting a new chapter — otherwise, they’d never let this go.

This is a reluctant sale. A chance for someone else to inherit something truly special.

They’ll even help you learn the ropes if you’re new to the game.

They’re not just selling the van — they’re passing on a legacy.

How to Make It Yours

This is a once-in-a-lifetime listing. There isn’t another one like it on the road.

Here’s how to act:

Call Mahesha on 0488 363 230 –  express your interest.

We’ll arrange a viewing or video call walkthrough.

If it feels right, we’ll talk price. The asking price is fair for what’s included — and negotiable for the right buyer.

Once agreed, we’ll get the paperwork sorted and handover begins.

This isn’t going to sit on the market. The right buyer is likely already out there — if that’s you, don’t wait.

A Final Word From the Wagon Itself

If this van could talk, it’d tell stories. Of foggy mornings at dawn markets. Of laughter at fairs. Of steampunkers in full regalia sipping chai as gears turned behind them. Of quiet cups of espresso passed through brass portals on sleepy afternoons.

It would tell you it’s ready for more.

But not just anyone will do.

It wants someone who gets it. Someone who sees the magic.

Someone who isn’t afraid to dress up a little, laugh a lot, and take their coffee with a side of theatre.

Is that you?

Then fire up the boiler.

The next chapter is waiting.
