I currently have an old Coachman Mirage that I use on a seasonal pitch during the week at Gatwick. I only tend to stay two or sometimes three nights in any one week but after a few months of 'giving it a go' I think this is going OK for me so I'm thinking that maybe next year I might get a better van, whats the PH view?, I must admit I like the idea of a Hobby size van with all the space that goes with them. I go elseware at the weekends and work long hours during the week so really all I'm doing is sleeping at Gatwick and using the showers early in the morning, its far, far cheaper than renting, thats for sure! I wont really need to tow and dont really expect to use the van for anything other than being a semi static - thinking around £10K make - Views People?

Why not keep what you have? If you are using it so little, might as well use it until it is no more

It has crossed my mind to just carry on with the old van and currently that does seem like the best option because it really us just a bed for the night mostly!
