Buying experience
Type of dealer you bought from?
Franchised
Did you buy this car new?
Yes
What price did you pay?
£0
When did you buy the car?
October 2011
Did you get a good deal and why?
The cost included the conversion to the new vehicle. Compared to the VW equivalent, £15k saved and a much longer warrantee.
Is there any special reason why you bought this car?
It is a campervan conversion by Wellhouse. Sleeps two in comfort, with all mod cons. Still under 2m, so ok parking and on ferry. I use it for work in the week (70 mile commute) and we can holiday in it too! Brilliant.
What was the dealer like?

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Faster than it looks. Ours is heavier than std and I suspect that makes it less bouncy. The std suspension has to be firm, I suppose. I can drive it all day on m'way, or in the city it has super visibility. It is surprisingly quick!
What's it like to park?
As a long car. Just a bit higher.
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
No. I put winter tyres on.
What's most practical about your car?
Huge space and being high up the visibility is great.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Heater seat and USB.fast.
