Been there done that rust stuff with our 1993 Autosleeper Clubman, 10 years ago & several times since. We had that expanding foam in our sills. Wise to renew the tyres - we passed the MOT and shortly after had a blow-out on the busy A9 dual carriageway into Perth. Luckily OH wrestled the van into a layby out of the traffic.
I'm sure you'll have some very happy times with Rosie, including some cider no doubt! And don't be surprised if other motorhome drivers give you a wave.

Hi Romperstomper,
4 years ago we bought a 2001 Bessacarr E725 and we've not looked back and spend an average of 150 nights away in her.
I'm not as adventurous as you and got ours from a dealer with 12 months warrantee, like yours everything worked except the auto ignitron for the hob which the dealer pointed out saying he had tried and failed to fix it. Mechanically it’s in excellent condition having done under 20,000 miles when we acquired it.
If you get an much pleasure out of your Auto Sleeper as we get from our Bessacarr you can’t go wrong, it’s opened up a whole new world for us.
