Had a phone call today and was told van now at dealers, delivery day for new van is.........
Tuesday after next Bank Holiday Crying or Very sad Crying or Very sad Crying or Very sad
The reason is our friendly salesman would like to give the handover.
Now I was away that Bank holiday with some friends and we where so looking forward to going in new van.

Hey forget the handover I said, as long as everything is working and my Sat dish is swapped from old to new van. That will do me, I have enough friends I can call If I get stuck (It is not as if I am new to Motorhoming). So Peter and Kath I promise any calls will be between the hours of 9am and 4am. Shocked Laughing Laughing

Well I can gladly say we will be the proud owners of a new Swift Bolero 680FB.

The decision was not an easy one, moving from the reliability and quality build of a Hymer. To move into a Swift moterhome that have had some teething problems on some vehicles. Are we MAD?
Well we do not think so after the Swift visit (Highly recommended)

We got to speak to Peter, Kath and his team. A guided tour of the site and a Buffet thrown in. This gave us the confidence to move to a Swift Motorhome.

See the picture of our new Motorhome choice.

Steve and Jan.

Hi Steve

Can almost feel your excitement from here, but are you sure you want the sat dish swapped to your old van. Laughing

Interesting choice Steve. x2/50? You're not bothered about the judder then? Are you happy you'll be able to avoid reversing uphill?

Tel,
To be honest i can not remember the last time I had to reverse uphill. If I feel this is a major problem then it will take appropriate action.

Steve

Well played that man!!

It's certainly a very pretty van and I do like the variation from white, or white, or . . . . . well, white!!

You will love driving the X250. I can honestly say I enjoy driving the van far more than the car, and the various problems it has would not put me off buying one if we were in the market for a new van.

Shall be interested to hear your initial reactions.

Cheers
