Names Michael, wanted a camper for years but not interested in tinkering about. Saw Danbury and thought that was my way.....coughed and sputtered but thought I will use it everyday as my only car. I would like to say I have had a stress free experience....today seeing my exhaust is in tatters after 22 months is the last of a long line of issues, another mail!!! I do however love my camper and enjoy spending time with my family our and about. I will add pic as avatar when the site allows. Great to meet Tim and Son earlier.

Just make sure you stick to the pixel sizes advised on the avatar tab and all will be well!

Welcome aboard MBT, we've all been there.... my exhausts lasted 18 months..and the issues around Danbury, however, at the end of the day just have loads of fun in your bus. As you will see from this forum there is a wealth of knowledge about our vehicles and plenty of places who will care for them if you don't want to do it yourself.
Happy days

Hello Michael, and welcome to the forum. We also have an everyday bay, however our exhaust has only lasted 11 months. We'll be replacing the bit thats gone soon with stainless steal. Look forward to seeing pic's and hearing your stories
Hi Michael and welcome to the forum. Plenty of advice on here to help you out. These Brazzies may be slightly problematic, but there still easier to look after than original bays, and you have a much better chance of reaching your destination

Found that I needed to go on to my laptop, rather than my phone to add picture!!!! Technology eh!! Will be interstingly looking at exhausts and options. It does sopund good, but unsure of the effect on the engine. MBT
