Hi, wave
This is just a quick iintro about myself.........Although I do not own an Autosleeper I am currentley on the look out for my first one. In fact I have never owned a Campervan but due to a nagging wife (several years) I have finally succombed! There are only two of us and a dog so to be honest I'm not quite sure what to go for but felt by joining this site I will learn some useful tips etc. I currently own a Mercedes Vito compact cdi 111 which I will have to get rid of as cannot afford to run both. I use this van at present to shift the occasional peice of furniture around and would need some flexibility regarding the 'new van' if possible so I can continue to do this.
Thanks for reading this!

Welcome from a dry but overcast Isle of Man.
As you intend to use your AS as a multipurpose vehicle a van conversion is esential as the doors on a coachbuilt are to narrow to get large items in but van conversions usually have a large side door which will cope with most things.

up! Thank you for that tip! I'm so glad I found this site as you are all being so helpful. I just want to hopefully get things 'right' first time as it will be my only vehicle so will take my time and not rush etc.
