Yes Steve, we had second thoughts when after laying a deposit down on a Dethleffs Advantage in 2006 only to find that the information that the salesman told us at the Show was incorrect when we went down to take a second look at the 'van.
We were told it had a double floor as well as the rear locker for storage, however it only had the rear locker for storage and was obviously unsuitable for our needs, it was also only a five berth when we were told it was a six berth.
We asked the dealer if he could get all our gear from the Elddis into the Dethleffs and he could not so fortunately they returned our deposit, although they did try hard to find an alternative 'van for us.
I always worry about any thing and buying a motorhome with its associated costs make me worry even more!
I know that feeling exactly....I always think it is something to do with knowing how much work and time went in to acquiring the readies. So when I part with them I want a good deal and always wonder if I have done the right thing.
However, once a deal is done and I still like to shake hands then that is it and I stick with the deal. Classic..'my word is my bond'. However, like H-T's Dethleffs deal if the other party misled me I would have no hesitation in walking.
I sometimes think my missus thinks credit card spending is free....
I always have second, third and then fourth thoughts but then I think och well whats done is done!! Did have real regrets after changing our CI for the Lunar though and to be honest the feeling of wish we hadn't done this lasted until we bought the Compass.....................and thats another story!
I always have second thoughts. We ordred our first van from the NEC show which was a Swift 590RS, but at the time Swifts names was very poor on here so we then went to Brownhills and changed the order to some thibg compleatly diffrent. But we will never know how good or bad the Swift would have been.
Now we are thinking of changing again and we have looked at Swifts, but its the Fiat bit that is putting me off at the moment.
Might wait untill next year to see what happens.
I hope you enjoy your new van as much as the old Hymer
