Happy new Cali owner

[Candy Camper]

Decided to leave the Bongo club and upgrade to the Cali club!!

Very happy with our new Cali, 4 motion SE we purchased it 4 weeks ago and hit the road straight away with the family, we have a 4 year old little girl who has told us that this is her camper she tells me and her name is Candy, our little boy is 2 and loves the Cali to the point he will not walk past it leaving our house.

Our first road trip was to Scarborough then griffon forest in York and then northbound to the Highlands.

For our first trip we done okay getting familiar with the van but i am sure there will be plenty of questions to come.

We intend to travel across the south coast for the first time in a couple of weeks so looking to purchase a large roof box, bike rack and privacy room for the awning before we travel on the the 6th April for a couple weeks.

Any info on good locations to stop and visit and good camp-sites is most welcome.

Looking forward to meeting other members at future events, if anyone has a young family who is wanting to meet up on out travels drop us an email.

Many Thanks,

Mick

Hi Gordon,

I am from Glasgow originally, I now living in Darlington but will be travelling all over Scotland with the van.

I work Offshore but as soon as i get home and get the kids in the van, home is anywhere the van takes us.

Keep in touch and we can meet up sometime.

Kind Regards,

Mick

Look forward to seeing the T6, I went in to order one and simply could not wait for the build as was a last minute impulsive decision, there was no 4 motion T6 available on the market that had been built for sale so i was looking at a 4 month plus wait as i ticked about every extra box on the list LOL!. This T5 was available and it had all the extras i wanted apart from the DSG. I will be getting the T6 built for 2017 as just love the new dashboard and the little extra things like the front blinds etc.
