- -3 weeks from Nov 2021. Caravaning from 2010 till 2918
As the title, we sold our caravan April this year for about £3k more than we would have got for it a year earlier. One of the few benefits (for me) of the pandemic! One of my hobbies is aeromodelling and my local club likes to hold weekend fly-ins with members camping in their caravans or whatever and enjoying a fun filled w/e. We were missing out so one of the campers offered us their motorhome to buy as they had upgraded(?) to a later caravan. I was persuaded that we needed it.
So we bought their 2000 vintage Fiat based Autotrail Cheyenne 635. I have most of its service history which is good but we have not been off in it yet - not taxed till 1st Nov. I spent a whole day cleaning the outside of accumulated green algae and it looks much better now. I also removed the useless Sunpulse so called fuel saver device (I found this forum searching for info there of) - it was installed on top of the van battery and completely corroded inside and further useless!
Another "upgrade" on this motorhome appears to be a Goldcruise cruise control device, but I have no information on it, i.e. how or if it works. I have found a company which sells and fits these devices now, but they cannot identify the type from the pictures I have sent. I need to get to the diesel pump and follow bowden cables to the throttle butterfly to photograph the actuator for them to ID the type. I know not where these are, they are not just under the bonnet!! Maybe then they can ID the unit an get me some instructions.
Then we will be away in our motorhome soon.
