So, we went to look at the van and it all looked pretty good. We haggled a bit and paid £4600 and we're now proud owners of a 2005 Elddis Odyssey 505.

We took it out at the weekend and it was great but I waited to post until it had been serviced. He came today and fitted a motor mover and did a full service. No damp, theres an issue with the fuse pcb which means the omnivent doesn't turn on but we knew about that already. The heater only works on gas and 500 - doesn't heat when on 1000 or 2000 so he's getting a price to repair. Other than that, no issues to report.

I also managed to get a cancellation for a B+E test at short notice so did a couple of days training and pleased to say I passed so we're now all set to enjoy the summer!

Thanks for all the advice!

XVI yes?

As well is two words!
How does a sage know everything about everything? or does he? or does he just think he does?
Remember, if you buy something you bought it, not brought it.
