Gone back to a caravan

after a break of 6 years with took the plunge and bought a bailey approach motorhome, in august last year, so just had a couple of weeks before we couldnt use it then winter set in so planned a tour of cornwall, and in april set off, while cost of fuel rocketed, and was getting in short supplies but we managed, averaging 29.9mpg,  downsides we couldnt get into parking spots even backing with the overhang over the edge at the rear because being 7ft 11inch wide we needed two spaces width wise,  tried using morrisons supermarket and couldnt even get into any spaces due to cars parked either side or opposite so would'nt be able to exit because of the swing out , plus the wind was bad and the amount of drafts getting into any gap made the van cold,  so on our return we put it up for sale and it sold to a dealership for what we paid so holiday only cost running costs,  so we've decided to buy a caravan and picked up a nice coachman vip460,  and we are off again to try it next week, plus we now have the car to run around in and it gets better mpg even towing. plus if we have to get off the motorway around greater manchester we wont be hit with a £60 a day charge (fine). and theres no MOT or tax to pay, and the insurance is cheaper.
