Sold caravan and bought camper van

She is a classic VW25 called Martha and I am in love with her! Power steering, new awning, bike rack and storage in every nook and cranny! 60k miles on the clock and after my VW specialist garage man checked her over and tuned her up etc, reckons I bought a 'good one there'.

She is so much more me than the caravan and much more manageable - my friends reckon that all that's missing is the surf board on the roof . Now I can think seriously about the N500 in Scotland!

BTW caravan was rehomed to a lovely couple.

We swapped to the dark side six weeks ago as well. Quick audit at Henley, Four Oaks the other day showed 15 caravans to 11 MotorHomes, so we aren't outnumbering the traditionalists yet.

Depends on the site Cy. I would expect that site to particularly appeal to motorhomers due to the nearness of the town itself.

Is your grammer OK BB. Should it be one of 'theses' or one of 'thoses'?

I love it, lucky you. Does it have 'facilities' for being completely self contained?

I can' see why you call it the dark side. It' that you choose the LV that suits you personally. We've only ever been motorhomer's, still with our first purchase 😆.

How did you get on? Have you posted elsewhere and I missed it?

Sorry Rosie Rabbit to go off topic.
