Hi all
New member just signed up. I have been motorhoming for 4 years now. I have a Winnebago Le Sharo that I purchased without any experience and have thus rebuilt it from scratch replacing all the American parts with English. I am presently replacing the Renault 4 speed with a 5 speed box. We (wife) have toured toured France and Spain quite extensively over the past three years have used both aires and campsites and have generally had a great time even during breakdowns, (which cost a fortune in both Spain and France). I am retired and my wife works only when she needs to. Because of the limitations of having a small engine and loving mountains I am currently in the process of buying a Smart car to tow behind on an `A` frame towbar. Any advice would be most welcome.

Hi and welcome to the site, I hope the tin worm is not too extensive. Most le sharo's I have come across were fallling to bits. Hopefully you have found a good one (or at least it will be by the time you have finished)

First advice then is search on A frames in here, especially if you like Spain.

Make sure you do your research first....

One or two interesting "A Frame" threads on here which can help you make your mind up....



Oh and welcome.....:thumb::thumb:
