Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I'm nervous about the whole thing. Excited too.

I really want it and know we will use it. We've done our research and know it's the right van. Happy with the deal too. Happy that we can afford it.

However, it's a huge commitment. Big sum of money, much bigger van. A lot of unknowns; so different to a campervan. Plus I still really like the VW that we are trading in. It really doesn't feel like I've had the VW for 3 years, it still feels like a new toy to me.

3 years :-O I would have said you got it about a year ago… time really does fly.

The bigger van will be brilliant for staying in - and your compromise is likely to come from where you drive and where you park. A bit more thought / planning can overcome that easily.

We've had an 8m motorhome and now have a 6m camper, RR - both have advantages and disadvantages but we have enjoyed both vehicles and used them a lot.

We were a bit concerned about getting enough use from a large investment too @RunningRonnie but have used it even more than we thought we might, and still really love it after two and half years. Having a bit more space means we're more likely to use it in quite poor weather.

We also have refillable gas, which is a great advantage in France. We had no issues with topping up last year.

If finances had allowed we would have had a bigger van but alas it wasn't to be

Currently sat in the queue waiting to board Eurotunnel. Have now felt so exhausted and washed out at the start of a holiday. Also a tad emotional seeing all the other dogs going on holiday.

Seems to be a super car rally going on and surrounded by lots of lovely cars and no doubt money
