Advice Needed: Buying Our First Motorhome

[Cartela]

Hey guys. Total newbie here. We are a hab check away from purchasing our first MH. It’s a 2009 Hobby Siesta on a Ford Transit. We love the MH, but it’s stretching our budget at £26k. We have come up with this list, can I get some opinions please…

◦ Pros
Great Layout
Comfortable
Good Condition
Big garage
Comfy to drive
Local

◦ Cons
Expensive (for us)
No clothes wardrobe
Little surface space
Small oven
Missing trays (freezer and oven)
Open shower (missus prefers the ones that have a screen so water doesn’t go everywhere)

Thanks in advance!!

Did you get lost finding Quackers

Van's at Simon's he is trying sell it for me, normally in Spain this time of year.

What have you broken on your van you needed me to fix?

Well,

There's the window strut. But that was like it when I bought it.

Then the paint work is getting really bad (fiat flake)

The drivers arm rest left hand side needs attention.

But the gas is fine
The tap is replaced
The sink don't leak
The fridge has been serviced

But bring your toolkit just in case
