The custom designed bus from DC is well equipped to handle the needs and requirements of its star owner. Shahrukh can relax in the luxury seats, get his make-up done, take a hot shower, watch TV, hold meetings, and even sleep inside the bus. For the fitness freak that Khan is, the bus come equipped with a small gym for the star to work out whenever he wishes. The bus is probably the longest compared to other star vehicles in Bollywood and measure around 14 metres long. Since a 14-metre vehicle can't be navigated easily, DC Design has used a hydraulic system that reduce the size of the bus when in motion, and can expand to its full length when stationary. Most the things inside the bus can be further customised. For example, it has lights that can be changed according to the star’s mood. If he is in a party mood, the lights change accordingly and if he wishes to relax, they turn soothing. The coach has five rooms, including a bar and meeting room. DC has used a Volvo bus and then customised. www.rediff.com/business/slide-show/slide-show-1-auto-shahrukhs-salmans-hrithiks-homes-on-wheels/20131230.htm

These pics must be old. I remember seeing them earlier, at least some of them. As regards the condition, I won't be surprised if it looks the same today.

Well I did not exactly mean that it feels new because of the pics. I rather meant it still feels like yesterday that he got that van, and also whenever we see current pics or videos it looks just the same! I would also be very surprised if he really uses the whole equipment on a daily basis. I remember at the time of the "living with a superstar" series he told that he had not used his bed until then, and I guess he would not have used it much since then either! Same with his gym - he has a super gym at home, the van is only used in Mumbai and maybe in the surrounding areas - at least I never heard that he moved that thing around the world! So why would he prefer to use this small gym compared to the one at home. I believe that h really doesn't have much time on set to use all the stuff he is able to use in his van. Make Up, Coffee, playstation that's what he needs - rest is a nice cool thing to have

Am thankful they are not calling this a "van" anymore.
