We, that is my wife Sharon & I have been chewing over whether to purchase a motorhome or caravan for the last couple of years. We have never tried either but have decided that the time is right with our children now 30 & 26yrs. I have been impressed by the amount of useful information to be found on the site and thought it would be wise to come onboard so to speak. Now as to the caravan or motorhome, decisions, decisions. We have decided we will be more suited to caravaning. Now what to get? I decided that my car was not up to the job of towing so have bought a diesel Honda cr-v. As I have no experience of towing I felt I needed something solid to tow with. As for a carvan? It will be mainly the 2 of us, ocassionally 4, again with my lack of caravannning experience I didnt want anything too large and pushing this 85% guideline that I have read about. So today we purchased a Sterling Europa 470 a small 4 berth with a MTPLM of 1330kgs so hopefully it will tow fairly easily. We pick it up in a few weeks time when I have got towbar sorted on the car.
No doubt I will be asking questions as this is a complete new adventure for us both, but one with we hope we will enjoy.
