    Thanks  MT

    That is the earliest they can get it ready , the dealer is selling M/H's quicker than they can supply them ,and we need to alter our parking area to accommodate it , so it suits us both..

    Hope you'll enjoy it as much as we have for the last 15 years after changing from a caravan.  Never regretted it, we find the travelling itself much better and the setting up on site much quicker.

    Enjoy!

    Good for you HD! I hope you enjoy the change as much as we have, no regrets on buying our MH, but then we kept our caravan as well! I hope you have a great time, travel light, and let your fun begin!Happy

     

    Dare I ask, is your chum any nearer to changing over?

    Now you can say goodbye to camp sites and have some fun parking for free. Our last weekend out consisted of a stop at Council Car Park for £1 and the next night was a very nice Pub Stop. Free parking. Meal was less than you would pay on a camp site.

    Hey congrats HD, it is a year now since we made the switch and can recommend it.

    We are also France bound next year so may see you on the Aires - we'll be the ones looking clueless :)

    I doubt that, you two.....

    you have a sensible gas system, a solar panel and the world (well, france initially) will definitely be your 'lobster' (AMOBUTS) where youll be able to just pull in if a town/vilage catches your eye, and just get on with exploring....

    Husky, after the shakedown, considering your location, im sure youll be 'airing' in france sooner rather than later.....

    again, good luck....Happy

    Hope it all goes well for you HD, but why the wait till August for the shake down when you get your M/H in 6 wks time. Can't you fit in a day or two on a site close to the dealer's when you pick her up, to get a feel for her?
