A CARAVAN ? .. NO WE DIDN’T ?

- Опубликовано: 5 сен 2024
- A TOTALLY UNEXPECTED Decision to
take a little look at this beautiful Adria
Action 361 LT Caravan , Nearly tempted to
crossing over to the dark ?, or light ? side
We walked past this van and it immediately
got our attention due to its quirky appeal and
size, Small on the outside and large inside it
really did surprise us, large make up beds &
plenty of floor space, external storage
access but no front locker from what I could see , A high level panoramic roof light made it bright and airy along with the white surface tops
Easier to tow? The ideal starter van?
Either way we were VERY IMPRESSED

We spontaneously bought one. Went to pick up some bits for the motorhome. Saw this and traded in motorhome. We love it. And one less vehicle to tax!
we loved it too , couldn’t believe the size of it inside ! quirky and practical , a good choice 👍
What motorhome did you have , I been toying with chopping in for one as well
What motorhome did you chop in , been toying with doing the same myself
Hi Mike & Kirsty, perfect for towing behind your van!! Cracking little caravan, couldn’t believe the space. Thanks for sharing. Cheers Dave & Helen 👍
Hi dave & helen , we had no idea what we was looking at 😂 but it seemed nice , ideal for beginners i spose , ive since been told it’s easier to tow a big caravan than a little one 🤷♂️
Cheers
Mike & kirsty 👍😀
@@TheFrenchiesMotorhomechannel It deffo is easier 👍
Had 15 tourers over 30 odd years of touring. From 2 to 6 berth loved it! That's a great little van! like you said a Tardis, enjoy all your vids keep them coming! 😉
Cheers paul apologies for my lack of knowledge re caravans but we saw it and I just had to take a quick look and I thought why not film it , wow! 15 tourers ! That’s a lot of experience
Thanks for watching again
Have a good week
Mike & kirsty
Love it when you pull the bottom draws on the 361and it hits the bin when the door is closed meaning even if it is raining you still have to open the door to open the drawers
Yes we said after wonder how that bottom drawer opens when it’s freezing outside , a strange bit of designing in that area and would put people off
No "Dak Side" for us thank you. Good video we enjoyed it, thanks.
😂👍 Thanks for watching and commenting , much appreciated
Mike & kirsty
Great use of space now in these little caravans. There was a debate with us caravan or motorhome but we are glad we got the motorhome 😁
Yeah we loved it and it was tiny and quirky but seemed really spacious inside , we like your motorhome , plenty of space , enjoy the rest of the week guys 👍😀
Very nice and spacious.
It was a nice little van thanks for watching the video
Great use of space for a 17.5 ft rig! Real nice!
Tiny but practical , felt quite open and airy , a nice little van for beginners
Thanks guys have a great week
The Dark Side 😮
and we was thinking Trick or Treat was over 😂
After towing a 44ft / tri axle trailer at work ,for me it’s got to be a camper van or motorhome .
As always there is a BUT ,
many people like caravanning and we are all different .
Kirsty said cute and yes we have seen them on sites and was nice to have the Mike & Kirsty tour .
Horses for courses !!
What surprise do you have for us all next Mike ……
Mike,Kirsty was defo something different and that’s what makes your channel interesting and you guys stand out from the rest . 👍🏻👍🏻😎
Keith + Michelle and Freedom the campervan.
Cheers keith michelle & freedom , hope you are all ok , we never even knew that adria has been out for years ! We’ve never seen one on site but seen plenty of the swift basecamps , similar pod like caravans , we love them , I don’t know how you drive those big trucks so towing that little thing for you would be easy , even the thought of towing anything puts the fear of god in me , so tons of respect from me to the caravaners out there that do it , must say though there was a minute there where We thought mmmmm 🤔 we could actually do this , who knows what’s around the corner 😂
Thanks again for the great comment
Have a good week
Mike & kirsty 👍😀
Amazing roof and finish- Made in Slovenia. Still fancy your Motorhome more, feels more like open plan living 😂. Another great video ❤
Thanks joern we just managed to walk past it and thought 🤔, we’ll take a look 👀, glad we did it was quirky and ideal for beginners, thanks for watching
Mike & kirsty
Hi Mike and Kirsty, it was a lovely looking caravan and so bright and roomy inside. think we still like the motorhome, i wonder if youve changed your minds, Kirsty was smitten with it x
Hello Julie , towing is not really my thing but that little van looked very tempting , we’ll stay with the motorhome too but it was something different to look at
Thanks for watching and commenting
Mike & kirsty
Doughnuts 🍩 😮 Looked good! It’s cute on the outside isn’t it, don’t be going over to the dark side 🤣 Em💛
😂😂 , it was a nice little van spacious for its size
Thanks Em 👍😀
I know less than you about caravans but it does seem a lot of van for the money, great for a couple and their hounds!
Hi mick Yeah ideal little caravan for a couple or people starting out , easy to tow although i believe caravaners say that it’s easier towing bigger vans 🤷
You are already over on the dark side lol
😂😂 no comment
Hi Mike and Kirsty.
Love you're vlogs. Like the other comment said you've been on the dark side for years.😉
We'll make a caravaner of you two yet. Did you really like that Adria, thought the back was ugly, still we all have different tastes, have to remember you are a motorhomer.😁
Keep it up you pair. Nice easy funny vlogs.
Keep safe.
Pete and Su.
Hi pete & su , haha yes I’m still not sure what side we are on dark or light but we could be tempted ! Yes the back was ugly but for us it seemed so spacious and ideal for a beginner , make up beds yes , but floor space and storage seemed adequate, yes true im a motorhomer who am i to judge a caravan 😂 , it was a quirky little thing and worth a look , exactly what kirsty said when she met me 😂 we were rather impressed though
Thanks again for watching the video and commenting 👍😀
The cupboard under the fridge is your wardrobe with the shelves removed hence the hanging rail. We have been looking at tiny tourer’s but they are just too compact & mostly unavailable s/h. Separate end bathroom 3 foot longer 2 berth is now on the cards.
Ah wondered why that hanger was in there , yes it was compact and well put together but your right it’s all about layout and what your going to be happy with
Thought we had lost you to the darkside for a minute 🤣
Nearly 🤣 it was a nice little van
Thanks for watching 👍
We have had caravans then a large motorhome. This week we sold the motorhome and are buying a vw campervan and a caravan.....we figure it will give us the best of both worlds but who knows? I think that caravan suited you!!🤣🤣
We have seen people pulling up on site with a vw towing a caravan , a good idea I think , plenty of extra space , a vehicle to use for going out whilst caravan pitched , definitely the best of both worlds , it was actually a nice little caravan plenty of space for the size of it !
Thanks for watching
My husband loves this caravan but not persuading me to give up the motorhome!
It was a nice little caravan but we’ll stick with our motorhome too , for now at least
Thanks for watching the video
Good vlog a bit of variety as we aren't all out on sites this time of year , we have a place near to us that do funky type caravan's and pop ups we think they are very smart and are beginning to look like luxury yachts, this story I'm about to tell you all happened in the space of three weeks, out daughter was some sort of business advisor and walked in one night and announced I've left my job and I'm off to France tomorrow as I've took a job as maintenance on a campsite, (she'd never done maintenance in her life 🤣😂🤣) anyway next morning she's gone, next we hear is her accommodation is a caravan which she liked but not so much the sharing so we hatched a plan, we shot out 🤣😂bought a used caravan and a few bits, wheel clamp awning etc, towed it home and booked a ferry with the intention of surprising her by having a holiday on her campsite and leaving her the caravan to live in till the end of the season when I'd go pick it up and tow it home, anyway before we knew the street door opened and it's our daughter 😂🤣 I've left that job and taken a job in Greece as a hotel rep lol , I leave tomorrow lolol, so we put the caravan up for sale and sold it a couple of days later for a loss of £700 lol, we didn't even get to spend a single night in it lololol oh how we miss that van lolol. Another good vlog keep them coming 👍.
Oh nooo I can’t believe it !! 😂😂 what a nightmare , maintenance on campsites is a lot of work and non stop she probably thought sod this I’m off ! 😂 , can’t believe you never even got to spend a single night in it , what a palaver all that , oh well hope she settles in greece , for all of you , it’s a long drive there 😂 especially towing 🤣 , anyway.. hope you are both well and enjoying vanlife , Ypres looked brilliant can’t wait Till we can travel further than norfolk 😂
Thanks again for watching
Mike & kirsty
This caravan was years ago not recent Mike, yes ypres is worth a visit as it's only an hour and twenty minutes from calias. Keep up the vlogs 👍
Very important question.... lol...
What fleece is kirsty wearing.. ? I like it lol. I've been meaning to ask her xxx
Hi kat lol a few people have asked that , she said it’s from a site called Abercrombie & fitch it was half price earlier in the year but she thinks they are no longer available 🥲
@@TheFrenchiesMotorhomechannel ahhhhh boooooo.. lol. Then again maybe that's a good thing lmao 🤣 😂 😆 thankyou Mike lol xxx
A very cute looking caravan but not for us. The thought of towing puts me off. I’ll stick with Madge she is fine for us right now. Take care Gill
Hi gill yes towing is not for me either , it was a nice little caravan though with plenty of space , couldn’t resist a quick look
Take care
Mike & kirsty
Why a clear window in the bathroom??
Yes very strange I wonder why , well spotted ! 👍
I dare ya ! 🤣🤣 Trev
Oh don’t dare me ! 😂 variety is the spice of life , apparently….👍😀
Have a good week trev & sue
Love that when the doors closed you can't access the two bottom draws...the designers are moron's!!!.😂💕🇬🇧🇺🇦
It seemed to open enough but not fully , it was an interesting little van ideal for a couple just starting out I’d say 👍😀
Well made van but NO, I started in caravans, had 2 but once I discovered campervans I never looked back…. Stay with Princess Leia don’t go dark side USE THE FORCE…. Jedi for the win!
Leia was always a good option 😂 , Vaders armpits smell anyway , sticking with the pvc ,
For now ! The empire never struck back with us , Yoda all the way 👍😀
Go on and move over to the dark side 🤣😂🤣😂
😂 you did it and it paid off , I couldn’t , I can’t even tow a tiny trailer 😂👍
@@TheFrenchiesMotorhomechannel just drive & the caravan will follow 😂
