I have been doing a little looking and have become interested in changing my Van.
Mainly as again our circumstances have changed and we have two bigger kids. But also looking a little further in to the future of them being with us less.
I want a german van. My first choice is (was) a Burstner 747 then that went to the 850 but alas if I park it at home it will only just fit on the drive, and at 8.5 meters Nikki thinks it too big.
What I would really like is an A class. In particular the Burstner elegance, but alas even pushing the boat out I can just about get a 2003 model in my price range. Then again the length is a little too long for Nikki (anyone would think she drives it)
So, the next thing that I like is the Hymer 754. which is 7.54M so only half a meter bigger than we have. Its the bar version layout, with a wealth of extras from solar panels to on board Genny. Nikki is not quite convinced but likes the idea of her own bedroom and Im pretty sure the layout would work.
This Hymer falls in to our price range but, it is older than what we have. In fact it is 10 years old now, not that you would know and the milage is low.
So the other oprion would be for the same price we could get something new by a couple of years in a c class but obviously not German.
So Older van V Newer Van?
where do we go from here.?
