We have just sold our pop top!!! It was a coromal, and really did serve us well. Now, the problem is... we are looking for a full van. Like the Lotus. It seems to have everything we need. Not happy about having to wait 6 months to have one made tho!!! Doesn't have to be a Lotus. Must have's are... seperate shower/ toilet, tunnel boot tandam independant suspension, island bed, washing machine, a/con. Anyone know of one available? We've been looking at the web ,and getting sick of that so thought I might see if anyone on the forum knows of any. Hope someone can help. Cheers Dellie.

We have a LOTUS SPRINT LE, had it for 6 months now and extremely happy with it, had to wait 9 months for it to be biult, but worth the wait, We have had no problems with it except they forgot to put 2 drawers in the en suite, it caught on fire, and someone dropped it while hitching, ( don't tell anyone I said this as they are very embarrassed) everything has been fixed to our satisfaction now, and we are very happy . If you have any questions feel free to ask. Happy travels Lyn
P.S. there are a couple of LOTUS for sale in the NOOSA NEWS

Thanks Lynjeff.. Yep, I found it. Spoke to one of the owners of a Lotus. Didn't quite meet all our "wants", buuuuut, guess what? I think we have found our new van!!!!!
It's a Traveller,, 21ft, and has everyone of our "wants". Big bonus.... it's only about 4 hrs drive away from here. Will be going for a look on Wednesday. Looks lovely from photo's. Will let you all know. Thanks again
Cheers Dellie

Will come home on Sunday.. of to pick up our "new" Traveller on Tuesday, home by Thursday. Then will sit back...catch our breath....then plan our next trip. Maybe to see Ma and her part of the world. Thanks All
