Good afternoon Cali people.

Just joined the club mere minutes after ordering the Cali.

Have been a campervan owner for years with a brief foray into Motorhomes!

It will be interesting to hear how your previous Campervan and Motorhome owning experiences compare to the California. I wish you a seamless wait/delivery process.

Hi,

Thanks for the welcome!

It’s an Ocean in Fortana Red. 14 weeks to delivery and and I’ll post some pics.

yes I think it will be different from both my old t25 and the Devin Sahara too. Very

Thinking of going Fortana red ourselves, but need to see one in the flesh first. What wheels have you gone for and any other exterior enhancements, ie Chrome pack?

Mark Ch · Aug 9, 2020

We went for the Woodstock 17 and the chrome pack like in the picture below.

Out of interest, because mine is due for delivery very soon, did you collect from Liverpool, or did they deliver to Surrey?

They delivered but I made it part of the deal when I ordered. But you could always play the “plague city” card and see if they’ll do it. I spoke to Adam who was brilliant.

Nice! You can peel that protective top layer off the wood effect floor I understand, then its not so plastic/shiny - dealer should sort that before delivery really?
