Hi all, been caravaning for a few years now and purchased two new caravans in the last 2 years. We have now decided that a motorhome is what we really want.

Take delivery of a new Elddis Platnium Edition 196 on the 12th May. So I am now a newbie again as I have never owned a motorhome. 

Any advice or tips would be greatly appreciated.

Just a couple of question for now and it may be obvious but I'm not sure. When setting off from home do I fill the (100 litre) fresh water tank or part fill it. When on site for a few days do you drive van to drainage point on site to empty the grey water or stay on pitch and empty into wastemaster or similar.

thanks in advance 

Dougie 👍🏼

good luck, Dougie. hope you have many great trips in the new van.

you're right, its so easy just to use it for short trips where you might not be bothered with a caravan.....

Artyboo, in her thread, has just done her first trip to France in her MH and was posting how 'easy' things were for her.
