Well I'll tell you it all started on Sunday 6/04/08.................

Said to the wife "Lets go and look at some caravans for layout and size" With that she said "ok, but we are just looking, Right" I said "Oh yeah" Anyway in the car we got and off we went. First port of call was Berkshire Caravans, three mile cross, Reading. had a look round and saw a Bailey Senator Carolina, nice layout, nice colour inside etc, went to find out if the mig would be ok to tow it, yes it was and on the limit.
Anyway then noticed it was a twin axle so decided against it. Back in the car we all got and then drove to Collins Caravans, A4 Bath road, Beenham.

We got there had a good look round all the vans (used ones) and the wife liked one, so again asked the sales women if the miggy would be able to tow it, she said Yes. Then she said "lets see what I can do with the price" I replied "I would like  an awning and it be a full awning" with that she went off for 5 mins came back and said "We will through in a free awning in the price" The price of the van is £8995.
After about 2 hours of being there, we have walked away with a new purchase a Abbey Vogue GTS 420. We only went to have alook BUT we are chuffed to bits.
YES I AM ANOTHER CARAVAN OWNER ANOTHER SLOW DONKEY ON THE ROAD.

Did you get the outfit in the deal and 'do you like dags'

Trading down for a Transit ?

Just think, next time you roll up at a meet you can be in the dry with a cold beer before you know it, watching everyone else struggling with tents!!

Own bed, own toilet, privacy, go where you want, cheap to stay, plenty of room to put your things in instead of boot or roof box

As I say, if you want to camp, get a tent (cheaper, faster, less likely to piss off everyone, or get confused with a tarmac layer).  Want comfort, get a hotel.
