    Hey everyone. There's a missing on-screen graphic at 9:56.
    It should show Calor's official statement about the cylinder shortage. Oops, that was my mistake.
    The link to Calor's statement is in the description.

    Should be told the correct tyre pressure fot that motorhome i think thats so important

    • @TheUrbanMotorhome
      @TheUrbanMotorhome  Год назад

      Yes good point, its so important to get the correct tyre pressures. That info is usually on a sticker on the inside of the doors or inside the fuel flap if it isn't provided at time of handover

    Oaktree tree seem fantastic, I bought from Marquis Dorset and wished I had the same experience but certainly wouldn't buy from them again ! Another fantastic 7i nformative vid, Daz 👍

    Very sensible advice to film the handover 👍

    Perhaps when one buys a motor home , the instructions that are given at the time should also be written down, by the company that are selling it..

      Excellent idea. When I bought my motorhome I got a full rundown of everything and as a total newbie it was much appreciated. But by the time I got home I'd forgotten everything 😂

  • @wheelersinthewild

    Great tip to video the instructions and to do it in separate clips, we’ll be doing this when we pick ours up next month 😁 xx

    I purchased a converted Ford Transit Custom Campervan and made a lot of mistakes when picking it up.
    I didn’t really listen to the handover due to my excitement but also did not check the finishing…
    I had seals that come off, Barn door handle fell off, Drivers arm rest come off within a month🤬
    I however love my Camper and the many European visits to come!

    Great advice as I bought privately and it had no booklets to help me, got there in the end but I have had previous experience with Motorhome.

    Recently stumbled upon your channel mate. Thank you for making these informative video's for us who are looking to take the plunge into van life!
    I couldn't find any checklist for us to copy n paste / print out to take with us in the description. It would be AMAZING if you could make one for all of us to download and use of all the things to check. I know you covered it in this video, but a nice little handy checklist would come in clutch on buy day to make sure we don't miss anything! Cheers mate, Subbed!

    Great video Daz

  • @danwatson8790
    @danwatson8790 Год назад

    Quick idea daz, would the like of oaktree motorhome be able to make a little pack computer written witg step by step with all vital information and how to's, and possible problem's that may occur and how to overcome them, plus obviously a visual check with the dealers as stated. v

    Thanks for the video. I think it’s a scandal that you purchase a new motorhome and it is not supplied with gas bottles and you are expected to find your own. There should be a law requiring the manufacturer or dealer to ensure they are fitted, or at least one.

    What 12 voltage aircon would you recommend 🤔

    • @TheUrbanMotorhome
      @TheUrbanMotorhome  Год назад +1

      I don't really have much experience tbh, I know there are a few options on the market, the best known probably being Dometic but that unit is around £2.5k

    You should call this vid a complete guide to buying a MH for dummies

      It is by no means a complete guide, merely a selection of top tips!
