Fiat announced today that they have solved the problem of the reversing judder encountered by some motorhome owners. Some of you will have seen the Fiat stand at the NEC last year, where they had a double ended cab / chassis on display; well this is the answer! The motorhome is built between the two cabs, and when the driver has to reverse up a hill, he simply walks through (past the central island bed, kitchen and shower room) to the other end and selects drive from that end, and completes the manoeuvre.

No pictures are available yet, but many converters are apparently interested. Cool

They would be too busy denying the existence of such a characteristic Laughing
