Recommended Posts

Got a couple of interior pics from sellers web site but will take more over the weekend.

 

Side wall extends out to give another metre in width it's a 6 ltr diesel, fully self-contained and sleeps 6.

 

Don't know what it's going to be like towing trailier with car on, quite a long vehicle :).

Good job it's got a rear camera so i can keep an eye on the car.

 

Don't know what neighbours are going to think when i start loading up tomorrow night :)

Thats brilliant mate. Would love one of those for going to shows :)

 

Gaz.

 

I've joined an hire club so the unit can be hire out when i don't want to use it :) should help with paying for it, storage is a pain as it's so big.

Beats camping or driving there and back hoping car doesn't break on strip.

 

Feel free to come over and have a look around if you see me at a show, i will be making most of motorhome and going to lots of shows this year :)

Picked new toy up at 5:00 on Friday tea time at 5:15 some prat ran a lenght of wood, half tied to his roof rack down the side of it :(

Managed to get car on trailer as it would fit inside :) motorhome loaded by 4:30am Saturday morning, set of for Santa pod at 7:30am it towed like a dream :)

 

Saturday the track was shut from 10.30am until 15.30pm when it rained but they dried it and i still managed 5 runs before it was finally shut at 8.30pm when it started raining again :(

 

Really enjoyed doing the 1/4 mile in the dark, so different :)

 

Got up Sunday morrning and it had snowed & it was very cold, now i was glad we had central heating etc.

 

How anybody slept in a tent in that i don't know.

 

Put the car on the trailer & the sun came out :cool: bitterly cold.

 

The y cleared the track for cars to run at 11:30 well done the to the staff at Pod :)

Man, that is amazing? I'd also like to know about that - and the hire thing you mentioned - like Buy-To-Let for a motorhome lol

 

That's certainly the way to do it ... might look at something like that if I can shift the MR2 Spider :)

Very much like buy-to let.

You give me £800 per week to hire my van.

Drop off or collect to be negotiated.

 

You leave me £1000 deposit so i know you are going to look after it :)

 

Hire company insure it for above 1k damage.

 

If i don't like the look of you i walk away :)

 

If i clean it when it comes back i can charge hourly rate that comes out of the 1k deposit.

 

I hire it out for 12 weeks a year and that covers the cost of buying it :)

 

But i want to use it so i will have to pay for it, like when you buy most things :)

 

We have purchased it instead of a place abroad, we can also use when at shows, drag strips etc.

Still clog the roads up thou ;)

 

 

Don't really understand that, the bit of road i drive on keeps moving normally and if i'm sat in traffic it's just like any other vehicle other than i can put my feet up, put kettle on and watch tv :)

 

Weekends are for leisure traffic so i don't think it will make that much difference unless you are following me on the A & B roads into pod :)

I want one of them, you can get them with garages with space for 3 motorbikes, would be great for a europe trip with the boys:cool:

 

Looked at all sorts with garages but all to small for Supra :)

 

Quads and Bikes fit easy also all tools wheels etc. Even with stacking level for 2 quads :)

 

Mines even got an hot and cold shower head in an exterior cupboard for washing down :)
