Up 3p?? Discover Leisure price has been bouncing around .50 and .65 (thats half a penny and just over half a penny) all day. I think you have been reading the price wrong.

Incidentally, please note that I have no criticism of the 707SL in general, in fact it looks a cracking van, it's just the basic 3500kg versions payload that is the problem.

Shall we shut up now? I would imaging that we might be boring folks to death.

Ha Ha Ron, Sorry mate that is 50p not half a penny I thought when you were on about it.

the 0 is £ and the.00 is pence so when you get to 0.99 it is 1p off a pound so when it is 1.00 p it is 1 pound ie 100 p

Anyway No more on it, Thanks mate

I don't suggest either of you two take up stockbroking for a living. Laughing Laughing Laughing

Seriously, Ron has a very good point regarding deposits/final payments on motorhomes. Regardless of the company share price or anything else, in this day and age it's wise not to part with any money unless you have either the goods in your hand or a guarantee that your money is safe. That may mean using a credit card deposit or maybe a designated client account at the dealers bank where the money will be safe in the event of the dealer going out of business.

Motorhomes cost a lot of money and I wouldn't want my 10% deposit residing in a dealers bank account for months on end with nothing to show for it except a promise of future delivery.

Totally agree in all aspects gaspode.

I actually was not aware that money was requested before hand (as I stated) I would certainly never allow that to happen on any dealings I did or have done, But if it is happening then by all means people should be made aware, I have certainly learned something.

I was always taught by my father, Never pay for anything till you have it there or in your hand, and that is how I have lived.

The other thing he taught me was if you cant afford it, Don't buy it.

I honestly wish I could have lived up to that one.

When I was in business and we had salesmen selling, My most favourite saying to them was, "Don't Tell me, Show Me, Then if it does what you say I will buy it, But NOT until"

Laughing
Found out some dodgy dealers with that one.

I've been contacted by a couple of people who for the life of them cannot understand what Les and I have been on about regarding those stock prices. They have my sympathy!

Most financial institutions on the market, stockbrokers, etc, show stock prices in pence and fractions of a penny. Therefore when a price is shown as 371.75 thats not three hundred and seventy one pounds and seventy five pence but three pounds and seventy one pence, and three quarters of a penny.

It follows that if Discover Leisure's price is shown as .50 it means its half a penny and not fifty pence.

I know its early but I feel like a lie down already!

Thanks for that OB1, that has to be the best and simplest explanation of anything ever in whole wide world Laughing Laughing Laughing

I now know everything I need to know to stay away from the stockmarket.

Hi all
I am an old tent camper (love the outdoors) and have camped all over the EU incl.. UK. I am now considering near full timing in a motorhome and have spied the Adria Vision as a potential home. I have looked at others, but am disappointed with the internal height. At 1.93m I don't want to spend my time going around with a permanent bent neck and head.
I have seen 3 models to purchase and read the forums regarding the small amount of carry on weight. Some incl. saddletramp have indicated that one can uprate the weight to the more accepable 3850Kg. As we are in are 50s, I don't thing driving licences are a problem, but how is this uprating done and at what cost?
