I'm a newbie
We recently bought our first campervan. It is a 2000 IH Savannah Gold on a Ducato base vehicle. It is just 5m long so really handy for getting around and parking.
As it spent the first 17 years in Spain it is pretty much rust free.
I've spent the first couple months getting it ready for getting out in the spring.

:welcomesign:to the forum from West Yorkshire. You need to change your avatar info from "don't own one yet".
Also are you aware that you are allowed five posts before you need to cough up the humungous amount of Ā£15 to become a paid up member of the forum. It will be the best Ā£15 you will ever spend in your entire motorhoming life :xThumb:

Looking great, preparation is half the fun, especially when it's your first van, the excitement of planning your first adventures, good luck and welcome?

Why not have it undersealed before the UK weather has a go at it ?

Since 1964 Gosh that makes me feel old.
Why not have it undersealed before the UK weather has a go at it ?

I disagree with normal underseal, avoid it like the plague, Dinitrol is the way to go, underseal seals the damp in & lets the underside corrode out of sight until its too late.
