    Any Motorhome Experts?

    I'm in the market for a purpose built Motorhome. My two options are to put a ridiculous offer on a recently completed one or buy a body and have an EXPERT customise it.

    I'm looking at between 9 - 11 metres and I'm not talking Bob the Bus with a mattress on the floor and a hole as a shitter. Fully kitted out with all the fruit. Utter luxury is the goal.

    Anybody here know a thing or two?

    PM me with your address and I'll send you a couple of copies of Motorhomes, Caravans and Destinations Magazine.
    Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

    A common misconception amongst owners of Motorhomes is that you have to be old and wear light blue stubbies pulled up to your armpits.

    But yes, early retirement.

    Nice, get a motorcycle mount on the back so you can take your bike with you as per link
    http://www.bike-racks-plus.com/cowbo...ycle_racks.htm

    That way you can take to the best roads in the country, or to track days etc.

    Be cool

    Good one Finn, house bussing is a great lifestyle.

    The wife and I took a year off work a few years back and lived the goodlife. Was a great time.

    Sounds like yours will be a bit more upmarket than what we had. But heres some pics of our old 'Beddy'
