£13000 for a 2003 motorhome is awesome. You are so lucky! Congrats on your purchase

[@lifeofthesampsons7110]

Pretty blessed with the price, such a nice motorhome!

[@LysanderLH]

Exactly what we want to get. Can’t wait to see how you get on.

[@lifeofthesampsons7110]

Thanks for following along!

[@nicholasgilligan608]

Well done guys, I enjoyed your video. I'm on my 3rd motorhome and remember the excitement of the 1st. I should it was only 3 years ago!! You have lots of adventures to look forward to.

[@lifeofthesampsons7110]

Cheers!

[@markfitzpatrick6692]

Wow what a great backing job Ian . I could never do that. I am lucky to back my leaf and Prius straight. My grandparents had a pull type camper that we used from 1972-1982. It was fun to do on the weekends. I took my go kart in back of the truck and later a mo ped that went 30 mph. Your kids will love it . My bed was up top in front too. I don’t know if I could get up there at 54.

[@lifeofthesampsons7110]

Spoke to soon lol, pranged it last weekend backing in, ah well. Everyone we speak to seems to love the camper childhood memories!

[@motorhomehappiness1268]

Absolutely fantastic motorhome enjoy every minute of it mate!

Great work man I hope u successyd with everything u do

[@steveni1459]

nice motorhome guys we were scammed 4 years ago with a fiat swift kon tiki on 52 plate was advertised in scotland paid for it they blocked contact lost our cash and never seen the motorhome...took a while but got a 1998 s reg peugeot boxer elddis 6 berth with 33000 miles lovely old van..take care hope you have great times.

[@pb8044]

Great little honest vid that all the very best

[@OurWedding2012]

Hope you have many happy miles and trips in it, looks in good condition, fair mileage etc. We have a reversing camera plus beep sensors, but it is worth using a pair of eyes when reversing into parking spaces as with the overhang bollards and trees have a habit of getting in the way.

[@lifeofthesampsons7110]

Lol yeah. I got some cameras installed as its a right pain to reverse in tight spaces!

[@peggyandthegreenfamily5469]

Hi nice motorhome allways reverse in to your drive it's so easy as you can see the sides of the motorhome in your mirrors and once you reach the mirrows over the gate just keep strait and open window pop you head out if unsure you will soon realise its easy peassey best wishes Ken and Christine xxx

[@lifeofthesampsons7110]

Thanks Ken and Christine!

[@notrut]

Wrong, that makes it easier and quicker for thieves.

[@peggyandthegreenfamily5469]

@@notrut Hi he has just brought his motor home there are many ways to secure your motor home being nose in is one of them but not always possible and can cause more damage and cost? than to reverse in and pay for a higher security system and motor home is about ease of use to enjoy????

[@johnbateman3244]

Just found your channel. Nice MH very well looked after. Not seen that model before but on a Fiat so can't go wrong. We have had a similar on a Swift Kontiki for three years now and love it. Have you joined Britstops yet. Cost under thirty quid for the book and gives you over 1100 free park ups in Pubs famr shops vineyards etc well worth the money and most are dog friendly plus you can have a meal and a pint and sleep in the car park. Bonus! Looking forward to more of your adventures. 👍

[@lifeofthesampsons7110]

Cheers for the tips John!

[@pipkins1972]

Why have I only just found this channel? Watched all of your Leaf vids before I got my first Leaf, that was 4 years ago! A great source of info.

[@lifeofthesampsons7110]

Which car do you have now?

[@pipkins1972]

Leaf30 for 3 years, had the Leaf40 for just under a year now. 👍

[@marklittler784]

Yeah worth adjusting the position of gateposts to help reduce chances of a mishap unfortunately of course you would correspondingly need new gates or an extra gate.

[@sm-ov1wh]
