Hi all.
After many years of touring Europe by motorbike, the aged joints (as well as my wife!) tell me it's time to come in from the cold.
After spending 6 months touring New Zealand in an old but relaible Mazda camper van we returned home bitten by the bug and promptly bought a Toyota Hi Ace van imported from Japan. Lake Balaton in Hungary was our furthest trip in that.
But within a year we spotted a Peugeot based 04 Autosleeper Nuevo parked unused and going green under some trees near where we live. It turned out the owner had bought it new, used it for one holiday only before developing an illness which lead to his early death. I made his widow an offer for it which she accepted.
In the three years since we've put on about 30000 miles touring around the UK and continent. We never stay on sites now, CL's here and Aires abroad.
