I'm. Certainly going to try.... I may drive slow on the 350 mile drive back

Not too far for you then, I couldn't find what I wanted nearby unfortunately so I had a two day trip round several vans a few weeks ago and this one hit the spot

Yes the motor was faulty it's having a new one installed today so all should be good now hopefully as I need it to operate so I can get a scooter in

Thanks I'm still nervous of the size of the cab and the distance from the windscreen but I'm sure I'll get used to it by the time I get it home

I looked all over the place up here for the right van, looked at a few down south, then by chance the ideal van turned up in Perth so happy days. Hope you get on ok.

We moved from coachbuilt to A class a couple of years ago and I remember driving first time thinking it was a long way to the windscreen. You will be amazed how quickly you get used to it. I love ours and would feel crampt in our old coachbuilt now!

Yes I kept expecting one the same as I bought to turn up for sale just round the corner but it's not yet...... Probably happen on Friday

Yes I had an A class before but it was a lot smaller, I certainly like the amount of light it let's in not to mention the space.... I viewed the coachbuilt of the same model and it was very claustrophobic in comparison.

I would have thought of an A class but limited by 7.5m on the driveway. Will stick to my Burstner.

Stop by Hawick on your way up over the weekend and show it off to us.

Hope handover goes well.

 

[Northernraider]

Sadly I need to get it back here ASAP.... I'm Moving out the house this weekend and In to the van so haven't packed a thing yet

 

[Northernraider]

That said depending on my progress driving home I may stopover somewhere tomorrow night and trundle home Friday morning although I'd have to take a sleeping bag on train with me.... Hmmm

Thanks she's a lovely motor and a credit to the previous owners

I'm sure I'll enjoy the drive back more than the 7 hour train journey I'm about to embark on

And as I suspected I hardly slept ha ha
