Our new Morelo is on its way.

[Mr porky]

After dropping our current motorhome back to the iveco main dealer to sort out the brake warning they had supposedly fixed, I got a phone call and follow up email from Premium Motorhomes, your new motorhome has been released from the factory and is getting shipped tomorrow.
We are so happy we will get it before Christmas ready for our trip into spain on boxing day.
Just the horrendous job of transferring the funds .

I just hope northern commercials sort out that warning light ready for the handover next week or Premium are not going to be happy.

No pockets in a shroud, they say.

9 years old on April 1st 52k zero problems other than operator error

Two and a bit years old and a huge list of problems since I bought my Carthago. Including Carthago themselves

 

[Drexxer]

Enjoy!!

I'm I not allowed my opinion? I comment on Carthagos only when someone mistaking says they are top quality
I must in the nicest possible way say to you if it annoys you don't read my posts.

Yes you can voice your opinion all you like I’m sorry I missed one little fault out, the shower wall has cracked but Mrs Westy reckons it’s the daughter shoving everything in the shower room
I’m genuinely sorry you have faults, I guess new models of every marque seems to have faults and problems, that said, after 2 years of problems I’d have thrown the towel in and got rid. I’ve had 3 preloved vans (Elddis, adria and this one) and genuinely not had a problem with any of them, I guess that’s pure luck!! Good luck in getting it finally sorted so you can enjoy it

We nearly got a Carthago liner for 2 before the current morelo. I liked the lounge area.
It was the 9 months waiting list that put us off.

I wonder if as someone who lives in their motorhome Tam doesn’t realise Octopus is a utility company supplying non-fossil renewable energy. That or it was a good joke

Assure me that electricity produced by Drax is not part of the Octopus portfollio.

Not a clue, nor is it my job to act as their PR department or assure you of anything. I was only guessing Tam didn’t know about them I wasn’t recommending them

Apologies Mr porky for the thread creep.

Which ferry are you taking Mr Porky I'm booked on the 9.45 Dover Calais ? Turning south but no plans other than Spain.

I've had two motorhomes,both new.
The first was an Elddis which we kept for 2 months. It was awful. Traded it in for a Liner for Two. Unfortunately it has been one issue after another. However we love the basic layout of the van and keep thinking once the current issues are fixed all will be fine. It has a great bed and terrific lounge The actual feel of the interior oozes quality. .However it genuinely has been in the dealers more often than the storage facility.
I feel very let down by a manufacturer who seems to have a very high opinion of themselves.
I don't mean to moan but feel obliged to put the record straight when someone mistakenly thinks this is product which rarely goes wrong .

Hi Tam, octopus only use wind and Solar for power generation

Are you staying at the dealers a couple of nights in case anything needs putting right before you set off?

No, we are still working the christmas markets in chester and Manchester till Sunday evening.

Have you been to Zaragoza before? If not it’s well worth a visit.

 

[CazPaul]

Hope the handover goes smooth then but as you already have a Morelo you are familiar with everything so know where things are already and what to check for.

I do hope you get a better handover than the one we got in March.

We have it's a great spot, I remember one year though it was very cold this time of year.
Lots of nice bars and restaurants, plus good shopping.

Oh dear that sounds ominous.

 

[Nanniemate]

Oh dear that sounds ominous.

You'll be fine

 

[Flairy]

They offered 10am for handover, it was myself that is pushing for an early handover as I need to get back over to the northwest and fill it with our personal possessions and there's not enough hours in a day. To be honest as I'm in catering early starts is not an issue

I’ve got up at 6 all my life by 10 half the days gone.

Yes I agree. They really ought to keep an eye on our travelogues and then turn up with a nice meal for us. Easy enough to flit between us all I’d have thought
