We collect our 19 year old Gobur in a few weeks from Gobur and have enquired about having a mover fitted. As they don't have any used stock it would be new at £1275 fitted much more than I expected. I have looked online most makers don't mention Goburs but 2 that did say either (Towsure) it can't be fitted on pre 2000 models or Gobur etc or they can supply but must be fitted by Gobur themselves, a special bracket and behind the wheels not in front. Where we will park is a Cul de sac behind a street which has 6 garages 3 either side with a parking area in front of each with all the cars parked and our Dandy always has to be moved in and out by hand. I hope we have the Gobur for years if it was knew I would bite the bullet and have one but it's very hard to justify the amount esp as the Mrs has said a definate "No" quick answers appreciated as they need to know by Friday if we want one. Sorry to ramble but you have full picture.

Our 1995 Gobur was already fitted with a e-go mover when we bought it. It is fitted in front of the wheels and works very well but has given a lower ground clearance, although this has never been a problem in the 3 years we have owned it.

It would be worth speaking to an independent fitter in your area and many mobile service engineers will also supply and fit movers at a competitive price.

Contact a mobile fitter I had one fitted to my old Gobur
12/2t a few years ago.
He fitted a reich mover even though all the mover suppliers stated that only Gobur could fit them.

No reply to email left with one company with nationwide fitters, spoke to another told he wouldn't recommend fitting one due to the ground clearance and didn't want me to waste money. Decided to see how we get on without and if we have to get one try again locally as 1275 seems a lot compared to advert prices.

If it's level on tarmac or similar, you should be fine without a mover. Presumably you moved your Destiny OK.
