We bought a Cali!

Chezza · Aug 14, 2018

Thanks to this site on which I admit I have been lurking for a little while. We've been negotiating with dealers on ones they had in that were brand new but we saw the perfect match on her under the Used Cali section so just waiting for services etc and then it will be ours.....
Posting the vendor description as I notice you're all going to be dead keen to see what we got.

I cannot wait. Any tips on how to find remaining pitches for sites over the Bank Holiday Weekend would be most appreciated. It appears everyone is going camping that weekend! We are in Surrey and don't want to venture too far for our first trip. Can't wait! We were previously campers but really looking forward to having a bit more flexibility and ease of getting away. Tent going on ebay soon!

Welcome!
Why don't you come and join us at West Bay in September? Details under club meets.
An ideal opportunity to get more info and ideas and a good run down the M3/M27/A31...

I’m guessing this is the Dorset meet at Highlands End ? If so I’ll call tomorrow. I’m guessing you can’t book it online.
Thanks for the heads up.

That's the one! I think that Martin said yesterday there were still a few spaces so yes, give them a call asap.
Look forward to meeting you there.

We're in! Hoping to get one trial run in before then so we are not the total newbies but then some pre-booked weekends between now and then means we will be the lost couple in the Bamboo Green Ocean. Looking forward to it.
