Hi all Wayne n Tracey here from Manchester. I was , i say I as i was the one into boats and T was not the most keen and i got fed up of canals. and sea sick was not my thing lol

So i sold up all my boaty` stuff and bought a me dream car you can see at the bottom, and T surprisingly bought a caravan. So here we are again with an old but good caravan for the £300 paid for it.

So if we enjoy it we will upgrade maybe next year. We have just checked all over it and just need to fit a new hose from the cylinder. Very dodgy indeed. But for that an upgrade to LED lights as it still has the original . And a heater as it hasnt got one. I have one of them a diesel heaters but unsure yet if there ok to be used on sites due to the noise they sound off.

Oh and a good clean down needed.

One thing i am looking forward and also T is going to car shows as i am a bit of a petrol head. love to tinker aswell. Or faff about as T calls it lol.
Also going to site with fishing on site to relax when there is no car shows on

I would use this for towing instead of T`s car but it think it would look daft with a tow bar hahaha

Sorry.

Welcome to the forum. Hope you enjoy your new toys. But what do you tow the van with. I used to tow with an Izusu Piazza. Looked daft with the van on, but it was a great tow car.

It took me a bit to get that haha. If it was a Capri it would have lol.

The Merc will be the tow car. I have always had Shoguns as there such dam fine cars all around. These days though i refuse to pay such daft costs for insurance and road tax so got the Corvette for me and T dont like big cars so the Merc will do.
