Very expensive Newbury show!! (1 Viewer)

Consort Oslo ordered. We left early, first ones in the car park and first ones at the Consort stand. Bought the last 6.4 metre Fiat auto in the factory!!

We were on a mission . We’d done our homework so would have been gutted if it had gone!!Very excited indeed. Have saved money by buying toilet chemicals(yes I know but my man who deals with such matters likes them) and some end of line white Corelli for £10!

Just as well Claire and Alex want a small wedding

I am glad you got what you wanted carolyn.

Did they throw in the T-shirt?

 

[Lenny HB]

Nice one, when do you think you will get it?

 

[Head Gardener]

Congrats! Just had a look at their website - what a lovely van.

How long do you have to wait for delivery?

 

[Mousy]

Consort used to be vantage and that’s what I wanted when martin first mooted the idea of motorhoming.
Scott and his wife were very helpful. We didn’t buy one in the end as there was a 10 month wait for an auto (10 years ago).

Huge congrats Carolyn a new van is so exciting and they make beautiful interiors.

8 weeks for PDI and fixes.

4 months for you to put the standard build and fixes right!

And, most importantly, years of endless enjoyment!

Awesome! Did you ask lots of questions about the electrics ?

 

[Nirvanauk]

Thought you were a diehard IH owner?

 

[cliffanger]

Congratulations Carolyn. You knew what you wanted, and you went for it!

Now I have to go onto the website and look for it.

A new van, a wedding, what could be next …. xx

 

[StitchUp]

I can imagine your excitement, well done

Well it won’t be me having a baby Geraldine!

Nice one, when do you think you will get it?

The van is there so they are going to start on it next week. Scott reckons end of July beginning of Aug. We had said no rush as we go on a 2 month tour on 24th August with GB motorhome tours which is fixed but he’s determined we sell our IH in the Summer when we’ll get more money for it.

Obviously we think that will be very lovely indeed!

Following the recent "travelling companion" threads it may very well be ....................

Thought you were a diehard IH owner?

So did we!

 

[Gellyneck]

So did we!

I'm confusssssed!

Surely you're still an Immensely Happy new owner!

Or have I got it all wrong (yet!) again?

 

[Riverbankannie]

IH, Consort, Vantage fairly close cousins in my book. I certainly would look at Consort if we were in the running but I’m an if it ain’t broke don’t fix it sort of person and prefer to stick with the old than venture into the new.
However, looks lovely carolyn and wish you and Nick lots of lovely travels in it.

The FIAT 9 speed automatic gearbox is fantastic.

Good buy!

Something to think about....Fiat extended warranty!

If you want to extend your standard 2 year Fiat warranty to 5 years then Consort can do it for you.

We went for it for peace of mind.

Yes we’ve discussed that with them already. It’s good that they can do it. So convenient. Thanks though. It’s about £850. We didn’t know about it until a week too late with our last van!

 

[paddymcc]

Congratulations, looking forward to lots of pictures

 

[yorkiebar]

Out of interest, why the Oslo over the Reef XL ? The larger fridge ? Or the extra wardrobe space ?

 

[grasscutter]

Congratulations. Hope its delivers on everything you want

We are having the 90L fridge option plus extra wardrobe like in the reef but we love the Oslo kitchen. Don’t like the Reef Xl boot. For us it would be pointless as those wouldn’t be the sort of bikes we’d ride.

 

[Swifter]

Nice one

Hi Carolyn, followed a Consort Oslo through Yeovil yesterday and thought bloody hell Carolyn bought one all ready

I think I know who that is, she used to be a Radiographer at the Yeatman hospital (the cottage hospital in Sherborne) and also Yeovil District Hospital when I was first a GP in the 80’s.

I hadn’t seen her in decades but she and her husband were on a motorhome tour with us about 3 years ago! They were just waiting to trade their Vantage Neo in .
