Is it possible that anyone has a photograph of a 2015 marquis boxer with an awning erected?

I appreciate this is a bit of a long shot, but maybe it's also a good test for you all!!

Thanks

    What a star you are!

    Yes, it was a bit silly of me not to say ' Majestic 105'

    It solves an issue that we will have next week when we set off for a few days. We had no idea how far the awning stretched 

    Very grateful for helping

    Thanks

    Another question please

    Ours is 2200 cc, 6 gears and 150 hp

    If yours is the same my question is what mpg do you achieve driving carefully on average?

    Of course this sort of query we can soon answer ourselves but we are getting impatient!!

    Many Thanks again

    Sorry,  that's not my van, it's just an image lifted from Google !

    I used to have  a similar van, the 115,  but I never worry about mpg or make any attempt to record it, life's too short, I put fuel in when the guage says I need some!

    If you are about to pick up a new to you van, I hope you enjoy it.....

    A 150hp motor in the 105 should whisk you along briskly enough......!

    I have a 150bhp Marquis 125, so a slightly longer body shell. Since we acquired the MH last September, we have covered somewhere over 2000 miles. The average consumption has worked out at a bit over 32mpg, with the best figure being 35mpg over a particularly flattish bit of terrain and good roads. Those figures are based on a full/full calculation. I tend to cruise at around 55/58mph.

    I'm with you, TT, I think we share more than part of a namesmile

    All I know is that our van has covered about 5k miles since we bought it last Sept and I can only hazard a guess at fuel consumption because we measure nothing. My guess is the low 30s but that 160 engine cruises pretty well at 70 on the motorways.laughing
