Meet our first motorhome!

[M-J]

After a month or so of research and looking we decided on a layout and budget finally ending up with this 2012 Bessacarr E562

Looking forward to lots of uk weekends and a longer spell in Cornwall this year then France and Spain next year.

Many thanks for all the help and advice in various threads and especially to @Bognor Saint who I have been bugging via pm

Should be 3 outside, 2 inside ?

 

[shunter]

That looks smashing enjoy

 

[PJGWiltshire]

Have you slept in it on your drive yet???? We did when we got our first one. Its like when you moved into your first home together.

Get out and have some fun this weekend, its only snow?

 

[MisterB]

I am slightly annoyed that you showed the interior - I daren't show my wife the pictures ....... it might cost me a lot of money ....

looks even better inside and would look even better if it was me inside .....

Not picked it up yet, tempted when we get it to drive about a mile and park up for the night. By coincidence my local is about a mile away!

Just do that, Go away very close to home overnight. Try and find a place with EHU. Then play with everything on board, Shower etc. Run the van on both Electric and Gas, Give the heating system a good work out.

Obviously you are looking to understand the workings of the van but also picking up any failings so that you can go straight back to the dealer for the fix.

You do not want to find any faults when you set off for a nice weekend away

DO NOT FORGET TO DRAIN DOWN THE WATER SYSTEM AFTER USE THIS TIME OF YEAR

Have lots of fun

Don't forget someone on here has the answer to everything

Our firs moho was a Bessacar, same as yours but with a different lounge layout.

We loved it.. It was comfortable, reliable and pleany of space.

Hope you have many happy travels

And that’s before it’s internal and external valet, plus the almost unused carpets not in the picture

 

[Mikey RV]

Happy travels

 

[WillH]

We have an E560, almost identical. 11 years and 70k miles and we won't part with it. Enjoy your travels.

 

[Cat53]

Had similar vehicle and lay out and enjoyed five years of trouble free motorhoming. Upgraded to a larger vehicle. Big mistake say no more.

Enjoy.

I agree. When we picked ours up the dealer paid for a night on a nearby site (to him) and asked us to go back next day to get any niggles sorted. As it happened we didn't have any

 

[Grianan]

Looks lovely .... we went for a wee first trip away in ours. Far enough to be a trip. Near enough that we could get home if it was a disaster. We hadn’t forgotten anything but would always take some bottled water in future as water dumped ... Enjoy!

 

[martin2603]

Enjoy !

 

[golly]

Nice

Beautiful mh ....

Don't forget when you go away, if it to a campsite field you may need chocs.

Apparently, Dairy Milk Tray is the preferred make .. this will ensure you get a good spec on the field.

Enjoy the mh and this forum.
