Well its too dark and wet to take any photos this evening & my poor OH has had to tow it in terrible conditions across Wales but she's made it in one piece on to my drive!

We are now very proud owners of a 2009 Lunar Quasar 546 used 3 times complete with Reich mover, full Bradcot awning & its leisure battery.  We are thrilled with her & were very glad of the mover this evening - as getting her onto our drive in this weather would've been nigh on impossible.  The layout is perfect for us as a family of 4 shorter lounge area of the 2009 suits us & in return we get a massive work top & large wardrobe.

OH is now having a well earned glass of red wine to help him recover from a bit of a treacherous first tow!

Well done your OH! He deserves his glass or two of red wine.

Hope you both have many happy trips away in your new van.

Erm Ahem I've called her Lula but I haven't told the OH yet!!!  I've put photos in my gallery as I have no idea how to display them properly in the message.

She is an absolute beauty spotless & just like new.  I've been in to make her mine with a bit of Fenwick & Milton in bathroom & to all surfaces & given the floor the once over too. 

As you can see in the 3rd photo my children have bagged their beds - just got to fit the bedguard to the lower bunk.

We are thrilled - the sun is shining (for now) and we are off for her maiden (with us anyway) voyage in just a few (tense for the OH (Im staying right out of his way)) hours!!

Ooh very nice :)  Sorry about the weather in Wales :(  You can blame me for that as we are off to Wales on Saturday so it goes without saying that it will be very wet and windy for us :( lol.

Hope you have many happy, dry holidays in her :)

She IS gorgeous! Best wishes for many, many, many, many...(oh you get the piccy), hours, days, weeks, months and years in her.

Hmmm....Lula.....I'm liking that. Mind you, we've had our Ellie, (Elddis Riviera 505), for five years now and my hubby is still totally oblivious to the fact that she DOES have a name

Have a great maiden voyage but maybe better NOT to smash a bottle of bubbly against her chassis till you're there and pitched or else she may end up being parked a bit squify.Actually......DON'T smash the bubbly anywhere near her, she's toooooo precious. Just open it and drink the lot.

Congratulations - she is a beauty!

I had my eye on a Quasar 546 but found our 'Adrian' (Adria Altea 542 uk!) first. Very similar layouts.

Hope you have lots of happy holidays.
