    Of course they do. It's that innate style thing.
    But they don't actually buy them.
    I hate to say this, but we're thinking of renting one next year.
    I'll show those flash gits on the Autostrada. 70 km/h in the left lane.
    I must remember the NZ stickers too.

    I reckon Finn whatever you get you need to be able to have another form of transport, ie a bike on the back, or a truck trailer type deal so you can un hitch and piss off to town or whatever without having to take the whole damn house with you. I think thats the worst thing, once youre set up camping or whatever youre stuck there no transport, something to think about mate
    Ive run out of fucks to give

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

    Ive been seeing that bus parked up all over the country, all steamed up up and jiggling like crazy!

    Haven't seen it for a while.

    I wondered what had happened to it, did you guys run out of steam?

    was looking into this myself.my idea is to get an ex american import(jappanesse model)that was used for medical purposes ie:blood donors .they have a wheelchair hoist which can raise the bike on and off,tinted windows,and usually can be between 8-11 mtres.and a good service history. more fun to kit out yourself i rekon.personalised then.

    2 dozen beer for the person than can track down this motorhome. Apparently it's in Taupo. The number plate is a bit hard to read - have a crack.

    Family on my inlaws side spend half a year every year just touring in their home bus. Bloody nice thing too. They tow a small jeep behind so that when they want to go into town, into the bush etc. they have easy wheel sto use. Chuck a few trail bikes onto the back and you have a perfect house.
    Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.
    It takes a big man to cry...and an even bigger man to laugh at that man.

    I've done the boating thing - over it. I'll chuck a bike in the back of the Motorhome and hit the road. That's the life.

    Hey, stop fucking around and buy a decent bike.
