At the tail end of a 3 month trip around Greece, we found ourselves at Campirama in Belgium. Not even looking at changing our Moho but I was interested in getting it reupholstered...you can guess the rest...

Wave hullo to Pearl, so named as it was our 30th wedding anniversary and she’s gorgeously pearlescent..

We are beyond excited! Although she’s a big lass, we are hoping it will be ok.

I’m over the moon with the island bed, after almost 5 years of a transverse bed, Mr Mousy still hasn't learnt the art of climbing over me without at least 3 points of contact....:tounge:

She comes with loads of toys so we can spend the next few weeks reading various manuals before we return to bring her home and part exchange ours. We will be sad in a way to say goodbye as the old van has been brilliant and we’ve had such good times, but my MS and agility are declining and the bed will hopefully keep us motorhoming for years to come.

She’s a bit flash and blingy for us, Martin is going to need a whole new wardrobe including some red chinos and I’ll need to dig out my fur coat and leave my knickers behind but we like gin so we are nearly there..:giggler:

Very very nice, congratulations.

Just make sure you have plenty of use of her.

She does look beautiful and young as well.
Hope you both get many years of pleasure in her.

Enjoy

very nice, you know where to ask for technical support (blind leading blind in part) but near identical spec to ours

it looks huge though, ours is 8.2m, is yours longer? it looks like it is

David, its 8.63m long, however the same height and width of our current Hymer.

I may need your help showing Dawn how to empty the black tank and service the macerator ?

The previous owner left a weigh bridge ticket that shows the payload as 820kg with all tanks 90% full.

I've checked with SVTech and it can be updated by 200kg with no changes to the van.

The helpful people at Hymer Germany I hope will send me a letter confirming it can be updated from 5300kg to 5500kg so my payload will move upto 1020kg.

We upped ours through SV Tech from 5000kg to 5500kg with no mods or input from Hymer ? our plate already added up to 5500kg taking both axles at limits

If you don’t already have full rear air I would say you will definitely need it, we grounded our back end on first 2 trips out and booked SAP pretty early on

There are a lot of things to learn happy to help if needed ?
