Hijet pickup rear shocks are quite hard to find I think!

It was a new rear brake compensator that she had fitted. The back legs of the romahome need attention and i paid out for a stainless exhaust as i intend keeping her. She now has MOT and Tax but still sorting insurance not sure if i just insure her as apick up or if i have to seek specialist motorhome insurance?

Needs camper van insurance really.

Most common cause of campervan claims is fire. Either cooking or electrical installation issues.

I can see why too! Every camper I've had to fix, I disconnect the batteries while I store them as the leisure electrics always look amateur!

Last thing I want is some camper burning my garage out.

Labradors and Retrievers are well known for having dodgy back legs when they get older.

New fridge has been put in and new curtains all done so just carpet and cushion covers to go but as this is my business mine is always the last in the queue lol
Been using Daisy all the time as she is my only vehicle now and stayed in her in a few different towns mostly alone and she is a little gem!
