Arrived in the algarve last night, moved site today to one in Figueira and stopped the Motorhome and now it won’t start. It has the same symptoms as before when i posted ages ago about nothing on the ignition. The ignition turns and all lights up but no sounds from the starter motor or anything. Just the spring in the barrel returning key to normal position.
called breakdown but they didn’t sound as though they would be fixing it. They are now coming tomorrow morning with a tow truck i think to take to garage.now the trouble is that they are saying i have 3 options.
rent a car
Stay in hotel and have it fixed in Portugal
Or have it returned to the uk
They are also saying that it is between 3k-5k Max to get it back to the uk which i was unaware of and i am then assuming the rest is extra.
How will we get back anyone know it done this before?
Motorhome is a 2017 x290 180bhp comformatic. Rapido 10000DFH. I also have a small car trailer with a smart on so going to be a pretty big truck i would think.
the problem is i need to be back in the uk by the 6 jan for work. The boat is in the 4 jan from santander but that is looking unlikely now. If no work i would just day w fix it but being self employed i will lose a lot of money missing work.
Still at least we had arrived at the site and not on some dodgy motorway somewhere so at least somewhere to stay tonight. Just no idea what will happen tomorrow
