Yo! Hi There... (1 Viewer)

[Eco Sarah]

My name is Sarah, and my partner is Al. I have a dog called Dewy... We live in my bus: iveco 49-10 S reg and daren't drive it far as it does very few miles to the gallon. I have spent some money trying to find out why, but have now settled for not driving it far!

We have a wood burning range (mini), a fixed double bed, no toilet or shower, a bench seat, table and kitchen: oh yes a few cupboards too.

Something that I absolutely love about the bus is the large skylight above the bed from which the stars appear to hang in the sky...

 

[Eco Sarah]

oh yes, and a PV array! 170W!!

Hi Sarah, welcome to the fun, I've always fancied a wood-burner in a van, but we always move around too much to make it feasible. Got any pics of your van?

Welcome!

There's a wealth of knowledge on here, you might even solve your fuel consumption problem!

You are parked up for most of the time, have you got a seized brake?

Love your set-up. That was how we started out with a basic vehicle which slowly became a little more luxurious over the years. A few more details about your engine may help produce advice on economy, Could the engine be re-mapped perhaps?
Sorry! Pardon my manners..... Welcome!

Hi Sarah and Al, sounds great..........well the living side, not the mechanicals.

Welcome to Fun.

Welcome! I guess you have something like this:

If you do want to travel and the budget can stretch to it you could get a suitable MH for living in which was a lot smaller and more economical to run. Or convert a van, as many on here have done - but don't expect an mpg much better than around 25. I guess your bus does under twenty?
