Nothing is ever what it seems, hey? My mate sold his home and bought a second hand (12 months) Swagman Australias. He paid 350K for it, which seemed to be the going price, and with all the extras on this unit it is probably a good deal.
Up he trots to the registary office to transfer the rego and he is hit with a bill for 15.5K; Yoiks!!
Had he known he could have used his sisters address in Qld and saved himself heaps. It would not have been illegal because his motor home is his place of residence and he could have had his postal address in Qld.
Me, I doubt that I could live, all the time , in that close a proximity to a missus, if I had one, and to tell the truth, they are having a bit of settling in as well.
WE have done heaps of modifications on this unit, not major, just setting up power points near the rear end to recieve a single 240v connection as is required in most c/van parks, and giving him two outlets to his fixed connections on the side of the home. I reckon that with what was already on the thing and what is now added any new owner will have to do a three months course on 'Where the F.... is it'. Took us a week to find how to switch on the hot water - switch was under the bed.
It wont last I reckon, his missus can't make pancakes.

PS This stupid computer keeps setting 'typing replaces selection' How do I fix that. Tools won't let it happen from this site and when I change it in Word, it changes back when ever it wants to.
