Hi. We tried a range of VW-type campers & smaller-type motorhomes. In France we learned to hate stripping stuff off the van so we could drive into town / whatever.
We finally settled on a 4WD Automatic VW Caravelle (simple bed in the back) with 200 horses or so. We very much enjoyed towing the Eriba with this van, any hill, any surface - no probs & we can set up & drive away in the VW at a moments notice. Perfect.
My wife wants more space, more bunks, more height, more width, oven, microwave, jet-assist & thermo-nuclear toilet sea warmers .. so we have to make the change. Condition is perfect, these are SOLID caravans, all excellent in my humble opinion.
We thought £20k ono at this spec for a private sale & we discuss going to fetch it back from Salou. Xmas is just a nuisance to me but I’m happy to go fetch it, enjoy a day on the ferry (Portsmouth to Bilbao or Santander) before turning round. We can also use the Caravan here while we look around. J.
