never used a van shower   we started in 1981    great for storing the fruit and veg , the wine and the washing though    several friends use theirs, but they have had problems and replaced the shower units  is there a link?- probably not    

come to think of it we don't use the tv equipment either - nor the oven.  gets you thinking, do we really need all this stuff?

We bought our van from my parents who had never used the shower since they bought it from new. We sort of followed suit and just used the site facilities until recently. The van shower was really nice to use (turned off water while soaping etc) and you could get dressed easily afterwards. We still sometimes use the site facilities but wouldn't hesitate to use the van shower either.

Do you actually need a caravan???

 


after 30 years' touring - including up to 2 months each year in France for the summer. the answer must be yes a van is a required item  

but do we need the extras is the question in hand    the answer I think is affirmative for some  and negative for others

I can see why some folk would want the tv - but when in France, tvs are virtually always redundant.  I wonder how many people actually use the oven as distinct from the hob and grill for cooking.  Microwaves - yes  but full blown ovens??

anyway, this takes us from the thread -    showers, for some it is 'no' as seen above each to his/her own

and then there is the van test in the CC magazine this month - do we need a fixed hair drier in the loo?
