Helo from sunny Watford.
by Musto Sat Apr 08, 2017 9:30 pm
Well it was today.
My wife and I are recently retired and the state pension is now pouring in and we don't know what to spend it on, so we have decided to buy a motorhome and run away to the good weather in the south of Spain for next winter. We think we want a Ford based van with a bed over the cab. Probably an EXCELSIOR or something similar. Don't want it too big as we fancy doing as much wide guerilla camping as we can. But am open to any and all advice. Don't want anything to new as it would come with to many electronic bits and bobs that tend to go wrong. I like to do my own servicing so let's keep it simple.
All the best.

Ford imo are better base vehicles than Peugeots. Along with Excelsiors have a look at the Amethyst or the larger Legends.
Others available on the Tranny were Rienxas, Hampshires,Ravennas and Pollensas
