Anne & I are new to the motorhome experience and are planning a 6 month tour of the UK & Europe. We live in Australia but want to buy an older van in the UK for this trip then our son will look after it in the UK until our next trip. We've identified a 1989 Laika Laserhome 57S with a Talbot Express 1500D 2.5 diesel engine. Does anyone have any experience of this type of van or advice as to what to look out for. Its done 79625 miles and recently had new cam & pump belts as well as idlers. All auxiliary belts and CV Gaiters also changed.
Any advice would be welcomed. Thanks!

There aren't many Laikas in the UK, but I did know someine who had one which he liked very much. I think they are regarded as a pretty good van. As far as the habitation equipment is concerned it's only a lot of parts, so as easy as any other to fix if needed. I believe that the Talbot base is perfectly good, so it depends on the particular vehicle. I believe that it is getting difficult to find some parts, but no doubt if you do need any and are prepared to wait you will get the parts. But I only know what I've read.
