Hi there. So, just bought my first van.. A 1981 alpine sprite, in hearing aid beige Yes it's old, but I like it, love the whole retro thing!

I am quite sure I will be asking lots of advice on here in the coming months, as I am completely new to this (in fact, i already posted a problem in the tech forum!).. Hopefully gonna be a lot of fun though

Hi there and welcome to the Practical Caravan forum. We love the username 'magicpickle'! We also hear that 'hearing aid beige' is all the rage. We'd love to see a picture of your caravan – are you towing it with something of the same age?

Hi Lizzie. Unfortunately not an old car to go with it (yet), although i was only thinking this morning that a nice Princess would look great with it

Not sure how to add pic to the post though.....

Welcome to the Forum magicpickle.
I had that same model of van for a couple of years quite a number of years ago.
We had some brilliant holidays with it. I'm sure you will have great times when you get up and running.
Again welcome to the forum and best wishes
Brian
