jennifer ,doesn"t need to be 6 birth but i do need 5 ,like the layouts of the twin wheelers but i think its out of the question,the reason i mention the montana was there were a couple on e bay .
awnings for weekends not really practical for me,
ill keep looking,if not ill stick with my pathfinder f/c for now
by the way our volvo does 41mph!!!!! and 44mpg!!!!!!!
Richard We have been pleased with our Emerald (same layout as today's Moonstone) The Eccles Sapphire (1471kg) and Amethyst (1464kg) or similar are 5 berth and well within your allowed weight , but the personal effects payloads are still pretty miserable for 5 , but probably pretty average! Depends how much "other stuff" you take along I suppose. Could always carry the excess in the car . We are only 3 but like to take long trips so have a fair amount of stuff with us. Longest so far was 6 weeks when we went to north Norway .

Hi Chippy,
We enjoy the views so much in glorious Devon, such as looking through the holes in the hedge or the demolished walls caused by the locals who go too fast in their cars, we just cannot help but keep our speed within sensible limits.
just seem a bailey senator Camargue@1470kgs on e bay ,this should be ok weightwise ??,doesnt seem to be much info on this model kicking around. anybody any comments on this model,
i can't get to grips with all this kerb weights and stuff, but we are buying a volvo v70 2.5 next week, the guy let us borrow it for our trip to eden camp to see how it was with the van and it was great - didn't even know the van was there. it's an automatic tho so it seems a bit slow to pull off, but once up to speed it was great.
our van is an abbey vogue, dunno the weights and stuff but i did a match on that website someone put on a few weeks ago and that said perfect - so that'll do for me!!!
