After a few years in a small caravan we are now the proud owners of a new Sunliner Vibe Motorhome. It's based on the Renault Master X62, 2.3 TD, 7.1m long, rear wheel drive.

We had a few after market extras attached so as to maintain comfort when free camping including a bike rack, 160W solar with duel batteries, outdoor hot and cold shower for days at the beach, fold down table, diesel heater and entertainment pack built in.

Had a couple of long weekends away to get the feel of the unit and have found that slow and steady is the best recipe. Not yet retired but not far off. We are keen walkers and are looking forward to exploring our national parks and coastal camps.

If there are any other Vibe owners out there we would love to hear from you about your experiences.

Cheers all. Graeme and Jo

Welcome to the gang kit33r, enjoy here and out in the playground.

I am getting a "Vibe" you will enjoy it out here for sure.

Oh! Keep an eye out for KFC's pink shirts. He will come along soon and tell you he doesn't have any but he does and I tell you that for free.

Keep Safe on the roads.

Welcome.. Nothing like good gear when camping, traveling . One thing we found hard is to slow down and enjoy the outdoors .. So used to rushing to destinations .. Nice motor home . Enjoy ..

Hi

I have just purchased a Sunliner Switch and so far love it.  Only had 2 nights in a caravan park so far but hope to get on the road in Feb and will be heading down NSW south coast. I am solo and a complete newbie with a lot to learn.  Enjoy your travelling.  Cassie9

Welcome to the gang Graeme & Jo as Aus- Kiwi said it takes a while to slow down and enjoy this beautiful country but if you do you will really enjoy being out in the big playground, I assure you that the roses and all the wild flowers are worth stopping to smell sand enjoy
