Little Blue has arrived

[Steven Birbeck]

Hi All
Ive recently retired from the Fire Service and last week took delivery of our Ex demo Ocean bought from Lookers Van Centre Newcastle great service and excellent handover from Paul Matharu.We couldn't wait to try the van out so off we went to Kielder Forest on Sat night minus 3 degs outside but warm and cosy inside .We woke next morning feeling great and saying to each other Why haven't we done this earlier.To say we are chuffed with this van is a great understatement .Also I would like to thank all who contribute to this site the information we have gained has been fantastic.Steve and Denise

Van...tastic! Welcome to the madness that is Cali ownership. I agree the site is incredibly useful and people are very welcoming, so :

Congratulations! I think there are a few of us here who wonder why they didn't make the plunge earlier. Keep bringing your stories here for us to share in.

Welcome Steve and Denise, nice looking van! Is your van "lowered" or did you change the springs? However looks great and I am sure it drives even better. Enjoy!

Welcome on board , guess the reaction most new Cali owners get afther a frist is "why have we waited so long to get a Cali"

Hi Steve and Denise
There are a few up in the real North of England, .Got ours from Lookers too, did you get the biscuits?

I think we are very very lucky, 90mins from Scotland, 60mins from Northumberland, 60mins from North Yorkshire moors, you are closer than I, 90 mins from the Lakes epic countryside around these parts

Happy Days Ahead, I'll look out for you on the road

Hi yes we stayed in that car park our original idea was to park up in the forrest some where but there was too much snow on the tracks.Turned out to be a good decision as the toilet block was open so for our maiden adventure it worked well.Good luck with new van when it arrives
