I agree with Richard and Tom, choose the colors that are pleasing, find the layout that works best for you.
Then before you buy I would get a look at the roof and whatever equipment is up there. Next get an evaluation of the underside, best to use a knowledgeable mechanic here and make sure that the coach is blocked prior to anyone crawling around under there.
Look closely at the sub-floors, leaky plumbing can wreak havoc. Test all of the equipment more than once, when I inspect yachts I turn things like air conditioning systems on and leave them on during the inspection. Take a long look at the coach from the inside and outside for any possible issues.

Lastly I would recommend a 1982 38' Classic! my favorite Newell.
