Good evening..

Hi everyone,

New to the forum, been lurking and reading for a while, and making use of the huge amount of information. We're based in Bristol, but spend a lot of time in South Devon near Slapton.

We've sold our previous Hymer B644, which we've run as a third vehicle for the last three years. It was sold a week ago, for more than we paid, hurrah!

We pick up 'our new' Cali on the 11th. Its a 2012 white, 180 SE manual. It has factory fitted tow bar, which'll be used for towing boats. As we've come from a massive wagon we do have the obvious worry about the reduced amount of space. When we cleaned out the motor home, we've had a massive cull of clutter. We're so far down to one large plastic box! Seeing it as an exciting challenge.

Main reason for the change, was to have a vehicle which we could use for camping and as a day wagon. Day wagon duties will be from our Bristol and Devon bases with the kids, and from the south coast for sailing support vehicle!

Photos to follow when we've collected the new van.

Thanks for having me.

Welcome&I look forward to your new VAN (and your onebox solution must have been hard to decide what to keep?)
