We all know that story, driven by one old lady and only on Sundays...
Sometimes it is true, my wife and I just purchased a used Compass Park Avenue 14ft Poptop van and yes, 1 owner, purchased new in 2005 and never put on the road in anger.
Only ever used, parked up under cover for her grandchildren to stay in while visiting on holidays.....
Anyway, we feel we have picked up a pretty good rig..
Went up to Tulley Heads about 4 days prior to TC Debbie drifting past us (lucky for us)...
Once home, we decided to update the vans interior a little.
Repainted trimms, removed all the old curtains and replaced with roller blinds, chippied up some pelmets and installed them to cover the rollers.
In all, not a bad result, at least it feels more like our little travelling home now....
Strangest thing is we have two rollout awnings, one at the side and one at the rear to cover our rear entry door (another quirky thing)....

Looks like a very nice unit.
Thanks mate, tyres have all been replaced, picked up by inspection for the vans roadworthy.....
All good
Jeff
Did you stay at the Googarra Van Park?
Nice looking van too
Cheers
Sol
Thanks, unfortunately not, I was more worried about getting the van safely back to Townsville...
TC Debbie was starting to make rumblings off the coast and the rain was pretty bad from Tulley right through to Ingham....
Thanks mate, we intend to enjoy it alot
