hello

[dunnie]

I have been lookingfor ages to buy a compact motorhome, travelled miles, I was trying to get a Romahome, e-bay private adds etc etc, but looked at some rubbish,then i found this 1994 c15 nu-venture, made contact and purchased, i have had it two weeks and love it, some work to do, but as i feel i got itfor the right price i am more than happy, I live in Coventry and plan to use my new motorhome as much as possible.

Hi Dunnie

A warm welcome to this friendly forum, it sometimes takes a bit of time to get a van that is right for you but it sounds like you've got a good 'un.

Hope to see you at one of our meets sometime.

Hi Dunnie,

It's absolutely wonderful when you eventually find a van! We looked for a couple of years before finally taking the plunge. I think you learn a lot by looking, but as you say it involves quite a bit of travel and many a disappointment. You now have the 2012 Spring to look forward to and some proper travel!

Oh how I wish someone had told me about exploding Dual Mass Flywheels on the VW T5s! That turned out to be quite an expensive shock!!

Hi guys 'N' gals, thanks for the warm welcome, just come back from my, correction our first night away in the new(old) motorhome, did Citroen forget to fit brakes(lol), I will get the timming belt changed over the winter period, can you shed more light on what to look out for/change on the C15 cause i will change eveything that needs changing before the new season, and we will be on the meets. catch up with you all then, once again thanks for the welcome.:so happy:

Brakes need a bit of patience and care when setting up and regular maintenance but can be made acceptable. Someone on here had a bigger master cylinder fitted, that would increase pressure when using, (I think it might have been Ian). It would be interesting to know what vehicle it was from. Also make sure that the load sensing valve controlling the rear brakes is working properly and not seized up and properly adjusted. The haynes manual explains how to adjust it.
