At last - I actually have Campervan!

Well it's been two years since my lovely wife @hippymoo decided we HAD to get one, and we finally got into the right financial position to do it recently. So after scouring the internet, and LOTS of help from you guys, last night I picked up our new bus. MASSIVE thanks to @davidoft for spotting this one for me. It's not got a spot of rust on it. It's not the Super Viking we originally set out to get, but it ticks most of the boxes we had (all the important ones at least), and the ones it doesn't we can fix over time. The interior is a bit tired, but that just leaves scope to make it our own, plus means we can chuck the kids in there without worrying about it getting damaged.

Anyway, enough waffle. Time for some pictures! There's not much room to get decent ones on our driveway, so I'll get some nice ones at the weekend. But until then, here's a few to start things off

I only tried using my left hand to change gear a couple of times on the way home

 

Nice bus, nice big badge as well

 

Might end up putting the spare wheel on the front, so don't get too used to it

 

The badge is the best bit for me and the rest looks very good. Might put one on mine! Waht do you bthink? Better than a spare wheel eh!
