getting frustrated with the weather now, dealer rang yesterday to say the new (to us) van will be ready for picking up when we can.

they have fitted motor mover and valleted and serviced it, all it needs now is an outside vallet.

but i have to move my old van from storage and bring it home to sell it, then the new van will go in its place at storage.

but the weather is beating us so far, 6"of snow at storage and also at dealers.

but they said they dont expect us to go for it till the snow melts, which seems it may be after weekend

new one is a coachman amara 450/2 2006 and is absolutely imaculate,cant wait to try it.

also going to n.e.c. show next month, as wife wants all new plates and pots etc 

ehh, whats that all about??

anyway wont be long now.

cheers

I don't know whether this information will be of any use to you but the official awning size for the Amara 450/2 is 886 cms. which is the same as ours so if you do decide in the future that you do need an awning it is advised to opt for the 900 cms

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

yes 886cm. but i will be having my original awning re-sized, at trio pair, they are about 15miles from where i live,as we have an annex for it

 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I managed to prise new aquarolls/waste master/battery + other bits out of the dealer when negotiating our new 'van

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

we're having a motor mover fitted for free instead
