Saw a magnificent Winny for sale due to marriage breakdown.
Well fitted out too.
Not sure of your budget Erich?

That’s too big for us Bruce. We don‘t want to go over 26’ and looking for a more recent model. Thanks for the thought though.

Sounds like a good deal depending on the price but we are looking for an automatic on a LR license and definitely something younger as we aren’t handy or mechanically adept. [emoji17]

Lesley, It sounds like you want to downsize to a white fibreglass breadbox. There are plenty out there. It just depends on how much you want to spend.

That’s about it in a nutshell Dave. We don’t have the smarts to deal with an older vehicle and its foibles. It would cost us more in the long run to pay someone else to troubleshoot the issues. That doesn’t mean we can’t find a MH that fits our criteria. Vik’s Esperance would be ideal but we just don’t like the layout.

Your decision I know but there is a difference in an Isuzu with few electronic smarts to one of these newer electronic 'beasts'. Ask Norman? Ask Lorraine, etc?

the isuzu motor is generally good for 500000k, so plenty of running in one. The auto on ours let us down tho. tThe bed over the cab is a pain to make, but the onan can take a lot of discomfort out on a hot days travel.
