¿DONDE??🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤

Which other local tourist attractions would you like to visit?

You pay extra to buy from a dealer expecting it to be as perfect as a used van can be. This is a good advertisement to buy private and cut out the middle man.

If folk can’t handle seeing poop on screen then they really need to stay in bed with the curtains drawn.

Welcome to the caravanning world. Looks like you’re doing really well. Great first caravanning vlog.

We had the same experience with the toilet when we bought our new to us van this year. The dirt was in the bottom of the cassette compartment not in the cassette! Disappointed but wasn't surprised, got my gloves on and give it a good clean. Happy caravanning and welcome to RUclips. Cheers, Martin

For our 40th anniversary we ended up aat Blue Dolphin in filey lola bit more exotic than swindon lol and our van was about 15 years old hahHa xxx

What you may find if you have a poor 5g signal, go into the settings just like what you would on your phone, and drop/restrict it to a 4G signal. which I have done this many times, because restricting it to 4g, I had a better through put on speed test than 5G. But as with anything you are totally dependant on your location and distance from the 'Towers and Network Provider

Test

Hi to both and great to see another video from you. Very informative regarding the product and your experience so far with it. We have a box fitted to our motorhome as this was standard fit at the time for our model. As you have found totally depends on your location and distance from the 'Towers and Network Provider ' I believe. We also have a static caravan across from Anglesey and Puffin Island and this is very restrictive Radio Frequency attenuation/absorption and even reflections can be an issue due to our geographical location next to the rock faces. We tether the phones at time to our systems in the motorhome utilising EE, Vodaphone and site WIFI (Contention ratio dependent). Seems to work for us most of the time, other times we have found RF wilderness! ) We still work and manage 'Teams Meeting's ' when on Holibobs with few issues, stream 'Netflix/Sky Go/RUclips ' on most occasions when the weather is inclement. Thanks again and look forward to more content coming.

New sub here. Interesting to see your conclusion that signal strength is paramount. I understand that even 4g can reach speeds of over 100MB per second with a strong signal, so yes, in my experience 5G is great, but often unnecessary as even a 4k video stream only needs around 25MB

Hi guys and your channel's a great find 👍. Found you by binge watching channels for the Phoenix + 644 before we pick ours up our 2023 model hopefully in late November. Not a million miles away from you in North Shropshire. But back to this vlog on WiFi....... When we gave up caravaning in 2021, our WiFi set up was a Solwise omni directional roof mounted antenna (£150 fitted), linked to a 4G MiFi (£30), plus a selection of 20GB PAYG sim cards at £10 each. If we ran out of data on the cards, we'd tether our mobiles (unlimited data) to the MiFi. Internet speed and coverage, like you've already discovered, depended on the SIM provider but we never seemed to get less that 20mps on 4G, enough for streaming in 1080HD. In the Phoenix, we're going back to basics and just going to stream via our tethered mobiles with unlimited data on two different SIM providers, no extra kit involved. Interested to know more about your choice to go with the Avtex 5G system in lieu of mobile phone (or MiFi) and external antenna? Maybe catch up one day on our travels? 👋👋👋

You really need to check the speed inside the van just using your phone to compare with the Avtex external aerial and router.

Hi both new subscriber thanks for your honesty it will help a lot on new caravaners what to look out for. We have toured for over 7 years now and have now gone seasonal in Criccieth we love it there hope you enjoy your travels look forward to following your channel 💕👍

I have a avtex amr104x with a smarty sim and a ee sim so far this summer I’ve found that the ee sim works better and in more places than the smarty .

We have the avtex 4G router with a vodaphone sim, we have not had any issues with caravaning and watching netflix etc, even when our phones have been struggling in the same location. It's a great bit of kit.

I wonder, say without subscription to a specific sim supplier you could use a card before purchase of a month or so to test signal. So you could carry a group of different sims try for the best then subscribe for about a month.

Do you find your van WiFi speed varies signicantly, site to site?

Port Marion in wales, maybe spelt wrong 😮, 👍

Can you guess where we are?

We also purchased a brand new Bailey Pegasus grande se Brindisi last year as a present to each other for our 40th wedding anniversary. A lasting gift. Hope you get as much pleasure as we do with your new caravan x

Hi, I'm not sure where the bar is. Could you please give me the name of the bar and its address? Thank you in advance for your reply.

Amazing video. I like it. How can I contact you?

❤All the best to both of you happy caravanning x

As a CARAVANER fo 45 years DITCH HALF THAT GEAR SAY LIGHT STAY SAFE, DON'T FILL EVERY CUBOARD WITH JUNK JUST BECAUSE ITS THERE. GOOD LUCK GUYS .

Fair comment on THOSES issues. But as a CARAVANER for 45 years and now on my 7th van .from my first van back in the 80's 😉 loved it costing ONLY £500 you expect down falls. MY present van now in its £30,000 bracket PERSONALLY I think this is DESCUTING that you hat to pay £175 for the caset loo to be replaced after the money you laid out on buying your first van . PERSONALLY speaking thay should of replaced it free of charge to you both and regards valleting its NOT much better when you buy a second hand car THESES days . At only 18 months / 2 years old in some cases. Its Shown THE POWER WASHER AND IF IV GOT TIME ILL INTRODUCE THE DUSTER 🤔. But injoy you caravan adventures as we have for 45 years .👍

Nice van guys.👍

Looks like the cleaners. Don’t think you guys are sorted to this way of life.

How very antiocial to even consider usung your TV in the awning to inflict the sound on others!!!+

Oh Jesus give it up, terrible🫣🤣😂

Jesus some first world problems here.

Combining elegance and luxury kislux

Big mistake buying from a dealer so far from home. That initial saving of £1000 will soon seem irrelevant when you need some warranty work doing. But if you're savvy and prepared to roll your sleeves up there's plenty of simple fixes that you can do for yourself and have one big service a year from a trained tech chap.

At the end of the Day A Dealership are your best Friend when you are Looking for a Product, ( in your case a used caravan) & They will Bend over Backwards to assist you time & time again & as soon as you have picked your ideal caravan you shake Hands & sign on the dotted line & they have deposited your hard earned money they have achieved there goal, after all there just Salesman . And when you start phoning to have a problem with your New to you Purchase sorted ASAP you get no response, time after time you keep trying, you now become Mr & Mrs Pain in the Arse. Just put on You Tube & get Tip Top Advice from genuine people that have been there got the T Shirt. Happy Travels. L T G T.

Tell us about any ghostly encounter you may have had 👻

We bought our first caravan just over a year ago. Ours is slightly older but fully loaded including self levelling , motor movers and twin axle. We are still finding out new ways of doing things and what works for us. Overall we love it. Great way to explore an area by finding a good site and driving from there. I have learned a lot since we started mainly from you tube (Dan Trudgeon take a bow) and forums which have proved invaluable in solving little issues we have had. Good luck and safe travels.

none of them come with new loos

Firstly, you have a beatiful caravan, 👍 On the issues you suffered, me personally, I would have taken the caravan back and got a refund,..no matter how nice the company sales representatives are etc, that caravan was in a shocking state so I would have demanded my hard earned money back,.. On the toilet issue, there is absolutely no way the company "prepped" the caravan, and those carpets.. So they give you a "sorry" £50..rather than do the rightfull thing and fit a new one..why £50..because they did not want to be out of pocket by £150..plus the £40 for the rug doctor... The Swindon Caravan Sales should be totally ashamed of themselves..

We've just bought our first van, traded in an Opus folding camper/trailer tent for an Adria Action, seems to be a good deal. First trip out after a day or so fuses started blowing, eventually tracked to a faulty water pump, not ideal obviously. Will keep watching to see how you go, early observations are need to resolve the shift from day to night and an awning would be useful. Best of luck.

That looks like someone looking round the caravan used the toilet, it wouldn’t have been from the previous owner. Many caravan owners have a no number twos rule in the van 😂 we certainly do.

I bought from swindon saved a lot of money adria Mississippi new spot on a few problems but sorted out fast the only thing I found they are not on my door step from west Yorkshire Wakefield

My mom bought one kislux and she loves it. It had been there for over 10 years when she went out with it.

Amazing video. I like it. How can I contact you?

Keep going please as comments on the site help us fellow enthusiasts find sites that may suit us. Happy travels.

My husband was 70 and I was 65 when we had our first caravan, a little 2 berth and last year we changes to a Bailey Cadiz( second hand) and had the same problem with the cleanliness. The microwave plate fell out when we opened a cupboard and they replaced it and a new window blind that had a broken string. Enjoy your travels and put your problems behind you, your caravan looks wonderful xx

Hi! great video! I was saddened to see the toilet cassette incident but in my long experience over the years its not unusual. The state some people leave their vans in when they PX then is disgusting. It makes you wonder what squalor they live in at home. I religiously clean the toilert cassette in my van but when the flap mechanism broke earlier this year I discovered it wasn't clean at all! I managed to find a video on cleaning them on RUclips that helped clean it and bought a repair kit on ebay. But a dealer shouldn't have missed this.

We are just in to our 3rd year of owning a caravan, and settled to it quite well. Brought it from private seller and no issues, had full service history, it is a 2009 model Swift Conqueror. first thing we did was have full service for our own peace of mind. Decided to purchase a new set of tyres as service showed up they still had original tyres on. Have used it all year round including snowing. Heating is lovely and we are really cosy in it. Just enjoy yours and learn as you go along. Enjoyed your video and subscribed

If you've visited The Cotswolds yourself, what was your highlight?

not buying of them
