Yes! Bought a new van.
Yes I know depreciation hit as first owner and potential list of things that need to be put right.
It's a sun living v65 made by adria so that's why it's in this section of the forum.
Supplied by Howard's of taunton and I am going to post a review in their area of the forum.
Went to see it just before Christmas and after a bit of telephone haggling we agreed a mutually acceptable price and the deal was done because I wanted to avoid all the new car tax costs.
Picked it up today and then drove home (hopefully there wont be a snagging list) - so far not so very different from our old adria twin all the driving controls in the same place but it's too dark to play with the new toy.
Tomorrow I may have to resort to the manual to find out how various things work that I missed on the comprehensive handover.
The speed limiter caused me a bit of consternation on the m5 in the Bristol traffic when I turned the cruise control switch the wrong way in the dark but fortunately I remembered that bit.
Good or bad I will post later when I have had a chance to have a good poke around. Then the fettling starts - already had lots of post from china.
Later peeps
Berni

Thank you all for your good wishes.
Now does anyone know exactly where the boiler dump valve is on a v65 sun living conversion?

We really liked our adria but needed slightly more space. Our previous adria twin went to a good home through a contact on fun.
Oh and I found the dump valve at the front of the boiler right down at the bottom of its cupboard.
