It's hi from Norm's & Barbara,
We have not got our motorhome yet as we are looking for help in this department ...we know what we would like and we know there are some out there which close to our criteria :-)

Firstly, we do have a budget, so its got to be secound hand ...so chassis is one with single rear axle with tandem wheels :thumbs: ...so to pull the beasty, we would like 2.8tdi if poss, though most are Ford with 2.4td :huh:

On with the layout ...ok, we need a large garage area to fit a chopper or a small quad, but it would be awesome if it could fit a trike :woohoo: would prefer two side doors for access and small access from inside :silly: ...so the rear bed would be permanent at the rear and hopfully transverse :P the front bed above the cab (captain seats would be awesome too :lol: )and the other double bed can be anywhere as that would only be used occasionally ...my lady Barbara would greatly appreciate at least one draw to keep cutlery in :whistle:

Just one more thing to add, we hate the smell of smoking :evil: so this is the big one ...one that has belong to none smoking dudes :thumbs:

That's it really ...the ones we have see so far are: Caravan International, Roller Team and Rimor of which don't all have tandem wheel axle :(

So to our future comrades :woohoo: can you help us find something close as you will have a wealth of experience knowledge :)

Regards

Norm's & Barbara

I think you'll struggle to find a motorhome with a garage that will take the weight of chopper/quad. They fit inside but many are limited to a max. of 150kgs loading - a combination of construction and the effect of the loaded weight levering on the rear axle.

Best suggestion is to go to a couple of dealers and have a good look at the layouts and vans for real. Buy slowly.
