hello everybody, we have just changed our motorhome from an american 7.4 eldorado to a swift suntour, although 4ft shorter we are much happier with our new purchase, an example is the electrics at last i can just plug in a kettle, and the petrol consumption alone pays for the site, also the set up is much better for lounging, we only had a dinette area in the american due to a fixed bed. has anyone else done this ? and how do you feel about the change ? just had a wonderful two days at Jacobs Mount in Scarboro.....highly reccommended site !!

Hi minnie winnie,

My Kontiki is called Winnie - so just had to say hello to you. Glad you are thrilled with your new purchase, we have a Swift Kontiki so we are somewhat related lol

All the best and I hope you enjoy UKCS - we are all a friendly bunch on here.
