Hi Everyone,
We have just bought our first motorhome, wife has called her Rosie😉It's a Compas Envoy 115, 2.2L turbo diesel 2008 Peugeot Boxer base with 19,000 miles. Obviously very New to motorhoming and thought joining this group we can gain a lot of help and useful information that to be quite honest we haven't a clue about🙄
Reading up on everything I can but you can't beat the practical knowledge from people who have been there, done that and are out out, doing it as I speak. We only wanted a small van as we live on the Isle of Wight and the lanes are pretty narrow, but something a bit bigger that a Camper Van as we want to spend time away in France, Spain, Greece etc at some point.
Picking the van up in 3 weeks, it is pre- owned in very good condition, great how motorhomers really look after there vans😁It will have all the usual checks carried out and we are going to stay over in a local site for a couple of nights to test everything out🤓Left onboard is a couple of chocs for levelling, some mud slip plastic pads, and hook up cables, so what I would like to ask is what essential other stuff do we need please? We want to keep everything simple, and we travel light, not really into gadgets unless they are useful for a motorhome and camping. Oh we are getting a 120w solar panel fitted as we love nature and would like to off-grid as much as possible. Also onboard is a 6kg gas bottle.
So thank you in advance for any help, tips and websites and we hope as we get a bit more seasoned😉 We can post some useful info and help others in the group😊
