Countdown (1 Viewer)

[Mickey1]

I'm sure most of you have been there, bought your motorhome then had to wait to picking it up. I put the deposit down in October and the dealer told me it will be registered on the 1st of march. So the countdown is 8 weeks today, anyone else in the same boat can join in.

[Mickey1]

@sallylillian , sorry, misunderstanding, the big one for £25 is out of stock, small one £19.50 is in stock.

This is what can be achieved with Colinite 476

@sallylillian Tennis Balls under the wiper arms? Our new MoHo leaves the factory in France tomorrow, so hopefully just a couple of weeks to hand over

I use them to just lift the arms to relieve the blades from the glass whilst in storage and on site where it helps especially if its hot to prolong their life. I still remember the anticipation of mine arriving at the German dealer in 2015 and he wanted me there for the 4 days they were prepping it and installing some stuff for me and they wanted me to approve the actual install option. So enjoy.

@sallylillian Tennis Balls under the wiper arms?

They spent so much on the posh van they can't afford the wine.
The rest of us use wine bottle corks, then if you forget they are there and use the wipers they just fall off and bio-degrade, providing you don't buy cheap plonk with plastic corks.

Managed to get eyes on mine today for the first time. It hasn't been prepped for handover yet, which was a good time to give it a good check over, before dealer could hide anything (not that they would).

It was also sitting in the middle of their storage compound, so a bit difficult to get full images.

I was happy with the roof system upgrade to Fiamma, which allows me to carry kayaks on the roof, otherwise the original rails would have been cosmetic only.

And box wine, where does that fit in the scheme? The wax will really bugger up the screen.

We buy bottles, looks posher on the table. The truth is if I buy a box I tend to drink too much too quickly.

Thanks for the Collinite supplier, cheaper than eBay.

Whilst I understand the word drink (obviously) and I also realise there are terms "too much" and "too quickly" I just don't understand how they can be put together in a single sentence???

Nearly forgot to mention lovely machines Mickey and Kingham, I am now so jealous I need to open another bottle (maybe box) of wine (like I actually needed an excuse) and when my wife complains I am going to blame both of you

 

[Cuto's]

Defo more up for a glass of wine over a game of tennis, wine corks it is

 

[soreeyes]

Enjoy . My countdown is 6 months gone since order at NEC and another 6 months till October .

Please remove yourself from the beginners section of this forum and straight into advanced. You were made for motorhoming with that attitude. I salute you sir.

Have I got that right, ordered at October's NEC last year ? That is a long wait, but I'm sure it will be worth it.
What have you ordered, did you go 5th Wheel ?

 

[skylinersi]

well we have eight days to go the wait is now officially affecting my ability to work, sleep, behave rationally etc the only downside being parting with a wedge and of course the dog has to go to prison for the weekend (in kennels)

 

[skylinersi]

7 days to go................

 

[Mickey1]

A long 7 days I know, good luck with your new motorhome.
