Our Recent Shake Down Trip in WA Mid Cereal Crop Area
(Preview)
We have just returned from a quick trip (first one in the campervan) around the Mid East Wheatbelt area of WA. Unfortunately due to medical appointments etc we had to be back within a certain time, but if we live our lives around health issues at our age we would never go anywhere. In all we did 1,447 kms o...

I've just rung Hyundai,,,which I should have done before my purchase,,,to check that I can fit a 'poly air bag coil helper' to Lucy without voiding my warranty. Yes I can! That's a load off my mind.
