hello all , just thought i'd share this with you, after months of hard saving, we have got a 2000 model vw transporter van, we have had rear seats fitted and tinted side windows, we are now in the process of selling our trailer ,roofbox and bars to fund a set of vw alloys,we done this as its somthing we have allways wanted, and having four children, we always felt crammed in our honda mpv, this way no was is rammed in the rear seats of an mpv, and we have loads of room for storage,  so no need for the trailer or roofbox,  and even better its cheaper to run, tax and insure than the car, we really cannot wait for the camping to start, all the best everyone, gary, claire and family

Sounds great, Gary - would love to see a pic or two, if you would like to post them here...

We have a Citroen C8, but might want to get something a bit larger in a few years...

Well, the car has a toebar..so why NOT use it??

Is your trailer still for sale? If so would you consider doing a deal at £300 as we are having tow bar fitted next week and so can stretch to 300 but no more. If not it will be a case of trawling through the ads and ebay. Heres hoping..........!!!!
