Hi to one and all.
We are Mick and Hilary, and have just sold our caravan and bought a 1995 Executive. At the moment we are trying to work out how to rationlize the contents of our previous caravan and large estate car into what seems to us to be quite a small amount of storage in the Executive. Its all to do with quarts and pint pots. I'm sure that over the coming months we will pick up lots of advice and tips on how to make best use of the space available.
Should it be of any interest, we are both in our ealy 70's and live on the south coast in Weymouth. We have been caravanning for about 30 years.

Hi Mick & Hilary and welcome to the forum, wave

We have had many types of unit over our 45 + years of camping, including large twin axle caravans.

We now have one of the smallest 'monocoque' M/homes and find it is fine for the two of us, (we always carried too much junk anyway)

Good luck and enjoy your new M/home,

Brian & Chris

Hi, if its a 3/4berth (tiC) drop the bed down in the Luton and you will be amazed at how much stuff you can get up there. Our Exec ran like that for 8 years with chairs, sleeping bags,coats &etc. When we changed to motorhomeing we went from a caravan / Volvo estate and it was quite a shock but you will quickly sort it out, be assured.

Welcome from Paul and Carol in North Wales handshake

We also swopped from caravanning (25yrs) to a motorhome and it was quite a challenge to fit things in but we're almost there, we keep changing storage options every time we go away!
