Welcome to the group, plenty on here will offer tips if needed, most of have needed at some time, and even the costliest vans have problems so fell its just yours.
Must admit though I havnt come accross a m-home manufacturer using the name of another for their model ie, Bessecar and Autocruise !!

Hiya Phoenix,

Welcome to the forum. Me - well I am new to motorhoming too - we have just bought a Kontiki 645 and take delivery 1st September - so just cannot wait to get out and about in it. Will be really interested to read how you got on after your first jaunt and hope you can pass on to me some useful tips for our first venture.

Have fun and let us all know how it went!

One of the best weekends ever, went to wyton lakes in huntingdon only 30 miles from home so not too far. Arrived on saturday evening to be put on a pitch which looked like a hill side Sad think the digger driver missed ours when leveling out looking at all the others. After a couple of attempts we got it as level as we could , the plates stopped slipping off the table.
The only real problems we had were with the motorhome and are being sorted out by the dealer, i actually wonder if they had actually checked the van over or just wait for you to go back with the problems ?? Idea
Anyway hopefully the waterheater leak will be fixed before the start of july cant wait to get out again

there's a really useful thread somewhere with tips on how to get the 'van level - Twisted Evil

hope you get you'e dealer issues resolved, it's sooo annoying when you have to keep going back and complaining - especially considering the amount of money involved,

Cool
