Love that blue Blue lagoon. And yellow, DizzyHippy - love that. We should have a multicoloured van meet up - how bright and festive the field would look!

Hi Rugby Andy, great picture, if you mind me asking, where was taken. Just put deposit on new Adria twin in Baltic orange. Regards Danny

Took the Orange Van to Suffolk last week then Cambridge. Saw an identically orange Adria parked up in Southwold. Anywhere on here? On both sites people stopped for a chat about the van and its colour. Seems popular.

Hi SB, how long have had the van and any problems?

Hello there. Bought the van last April and just did a few UK-based run-outs before (we thought) a longer European trip this year. So far this year we've done trips to Wales, Suffolk, Cambridge. No van-specific problems at all... just novice driver problems. The latter prompted me to add reversing sensors, avoid parts of Cornwall, research other SatNavs and take the advice from "helpful" onlookers with a pinch of salt. I still have the odd problem finding places to park it (and we have the 600 version rather tha 640). Had a few issues remembering how to do stuff (heat the water, set up the fridge to switch between gas/electric etc) but now OK. Starter battery went flat over the winter a few times so now going to get a solar panel fitted. Although a 3rd bed is available, I'm pretty convinced that the 600 version wouldnt work for 3. For the two of us it's perfect. Shower / toilet all good and invaluable given lack of facilities at the present. Drive-wise... yes, it's a van - and that took me a while to adjust to. Have gradually reduced rattling (we are novice vanners) and gradually become more tolerant of this! Effortless cruising. I get irritated by lack of within-easy-reach radio/media controls on the recommended AVIC EVO (Camper) satnav/radio/media unit.. but that's maybe splitting hairs! All in all, trouble free and we love it. Glad we didnt go smaller VW-size and I wouldnt have liked anything bigger to drive (daily drive is an Alfa which sticks to the road like a limpet and corners like a go-kart). Now need a longer trip!

Thanks for your reply , Cornwall always scary in the country lanes. Glad you like and enjoy the van

Confession. Been getting really confused about several references to the Twin being a "PVC". I've even been tapping the sides and shaking my head. I was convinced that "motorhomes" had some plastic bits but that the Twin was metal. Now realise that PVC is Panel Van Conversion.... not Polyvinyl Chloride / Plastic. Duh.

We’ve been in the Midlands with our orange van, now heading to mid Wales.
