| Our
Motorhome history
|
| In 2003 we changed our motorhome to an Autosleepers Symbol Hi-top van conversion
on a Peugeot Boxer 1.9 turbo diesel. A typical Autosleepers panel van layout with all facilities. Ideal for two people and
small enough to use as our only vehicle
|
 |
| Our
previous motorhome was an Elddis Eclipse coachbuilt on a Renault Trafic 2.2L petrol
chassis. A basic compact motorhome that we found ideal for two people, with lots
of storage space |
|
Our first
motorhome was a Holdsworth Romance HTL Super hi-top conversion again on a Renault
Trafic (2L petrol). An unusual layout with a good sized kitchen area but no rear
door access.
