Hi from Herts

keithg · Jun 8, 2014

Hi all.
First post. Pick up my 2012 California beach on saturday. Have owned a T4 for 16 years and still going strong ( work van). Am selling my toyota hilux and trailer tent and going luxury in a beach. It's the blue motion, I hope I made the right decision. Anyone with advice on what to look out for would be good. Looking forward to many weeks and long weekends away.
Keith

I spent a lot of my Childhood in the woods too mucking around and getting in trouble. Was a great place to grow up. Painfully expensive now, don't think I'll even afford to live there myself :cry:

Thanks for the welcome. I am in Welwyn Garden City. I have got one key, and will wait till Saturday to collect. Trying to decide on drive away awning or simple roll out? Much to think about and plans to make. I am a bit excited. Owned a T2 in Australia over 25 years ago and loved the freedom but not the breakdowns. Hope to enjoy the freedom without breakdowns this time.

I am now the very proud owner of a 2012 beach. love it. Just trying to work it all out. Anyone got any bad points regarding the Fiamma F45S awning? are there any others that work? Any help and advice would be very welcome.
