Hello hello hello! My name is Ruth,
I'm another one who does not yet own a camper, but I really really want one. I only passed my driving test in June (at the age of 30), and absolutely LOVE driving. I've been lucky to have a few friends who have put up with the non driving me in campers around New Zealand and Ireland. I'm a very good navigator now, but am itching to get in the drivers seat.
I fell in love with our autosleeper in Ireland, which was a VW topaz. The set up (particularly the shower and loo) meant that we didnt have to stop at a campsite in the whole 10 days, i definately enjoyed the wild camping side of vanning.
I would ideally like to get a Topaz but I'm not really sure 1) if they really are any good and 2) if there are other models are similar/cheaper/better! Ive found its hard to get an insurance quote without knowing the exact van I will be buying. Any advice would be much appreciated! I'll have a good trawl round the forums now.
It really is nice to feel surrounded by other people with the same interests
