Hi all, we are newbies, bought a Fourwinds Hurricane RV 2 weeks ago, other than driving it back from Manchester to Essex we've not been out yet. Planning to tour France and Spain during the school summer holidays just got to master driving, parking and reversing the thing yet (with a trailer on the back) ow and figure out what all the buttons and switches do.

You can never get enough reversing practice, trailer or no trailer. Bon voyage.

Hiya , we bought a new Four Winds Siesta RV , a B class and a slight down size to 29'.
Very nice, Did you find the size a problem? I've spent the last couple of days looking at sites across Spain for the summer, hours of research on google street view to check I'll get through the gate! managed to book a few so far

We only took the Hurrucane to France and Belgium , never booked ahead didn't find any problems . Some 8m site limits over here but all the info is available.
A few RV owning Funsters have travelled extensively in Europe with great success.
If towing , use trailer not Aframe.
Our last RV was just on 30' , no problem.

I'm looking for a trailer at the moment (my next ebay purchase) I'm planning to spend 5 weeks in Spain and have 50% of my stay pre booked, the rest I'll book as I go along. Not sure If I'll ever really use it in the UK
