Although we've had a motor home for a couple of years, we've only just recently joined CMC. Finally decided that it's worth belonging to this and the CCC :-D.

We've had a 2004 Lunar Newstar for a couple of years, which I love to bits. Which is why it's been a bit traumatic having it off the road since early November after a lorry scored right down the side & took both windows out!  Only up side is that at least it was over the worst months (rather than the summer) and it's been tucked away in the repairers garage most of the time.  

So, never having left it for more than 3 weeks before, what do we need to check, do you think, before we take it out on the road?  I've already had some very good advice from CMC on how to flush out the water system.

Looking forward to reading lots of discussions.

Well  if  it's  been  under  the  gentle  care  of  a  MotorHome  Dealer  there  should  be  nothing untoward  for  you  to  fret  about.  Having  said  that  (  wink  )  I  assume  it  was  the  off-side  of  the  'van  that  got  clobbered  or  you  would  probably  'lost'  the  awning  too.

I'd  just  check  electrics,  T.V aerial  etc & have a  prod  around  with  a  Damp Meter  --  losing  windows  would  have  given  the  whole  of  which  ever  side  it  was  a  right  good,  or  bad,  shaking  &  battering.

Best  wishes  for  you,  hope  you  find  all  is  110%  fine.
