Greetings from Devon
by spook69 Thu Jan 05, 2012 5:10 pm
I have been lurking a few times on this forum, but thought it was about time I joined!
I will have had my 1994 (M reg) Trident for 6 years this coming May 2012. In that time, I have been to the Inner Hebrides, Scottish borders, Lake District, N, S & Mid Wales, Midlands, South West England, NE & NW England. I bought it with 49,000 miles on the clock & have just returned from a trip to the SW Midlands & West Wales over Xmas (7 nights in the van) when the clock turned 86,000 miles.
I have camped at folk festivals, on the side of the road in Scotland, farm yards and of course normal campsites.
I have been very happy with my van over the years. Nothing major has gone wrong that was not put right by me a garage or a caravan workshop.
Thought about up-grading to a newer Trident vehicle, but the addition cost v. what I have now, I decided to spend some money on my van instead. So last year I had the rust spots on body work done up & the injector pump on the diesel engine re-built.
Kind regards, Ian.
Some pics for you:
Mid Wales
Breakfast on the road
Caravan Club Site at Malvern.
Going down the Llanberis Pass.

Hi Ian
Welcome to the forum from Bridlington, your van still looks good for its age, one thing about the dub engines are that they run and run for ever.
