After four years of floating between beach bars in the Eastern Med I set sail westwards, planning to reach the UK. We got to Barcelona and stopped for a couple of beers. A year later we were still there. All very pleasant, living on board s boat in Port Vell, but I fancied a change.
With the pound on its arse at 1.09 e I sold the boat in Euros and decided to try my hand at motorhoming. Not being a motorhomist. Salesmen practically ignored by requests for wuotes in new models at the NEC (people in shorts n flip flops don't spend 100k + on motorhomes, obviously)
anyway. I ended up buying this

It's 7.9m lol ng. 5 tonne. With 3 l diesel engine a
irs second hand. 2011 with 12k miles and lots of toys. I swapped out the single leisure battery for teo heavy duty gel batteries plus put a 120w solar panel on roof. The gas was also changed to twin refillable LPG tanks
In theory it's self contained enough to move to the forest snd live off wild rabbits. In practice I can be off grid with cold beers, hot food and warm showers for a month or two at a time
after a few trial trips and some waranty works we set off to Greece in April this year, returning to UK in end September Will pist some pucs and info on stops
