In that time all it had spent on it was (excluding service work/fuel/tax etc) the engine mods, exhaust and rebuilt front seats, oh a pair of batteries and a set of tyres.

The beauty of being able to jump in and go is great- no need to prepare, just fill it with fuel, dump in some clothes, grab some beer from the offy, and away we go. The once we went to Wales; got bored and decided to go to Ireland instead. Didn't pre plan, didn't pre book, just went.

These days I have to play Tetris with the boot, and pre-book campsites. Or book in hotels, in which case I don't skimp as cheap UK hotels tend to have dire soundproofing; I'd rather sleep outside in a tent than put up with hearing someone's over-exaggerated orgasms at 3:00am in a £30 a night Premier Inn.
I was talking to a motorhome salesman friend of mine on Saturday , they have been taking in motorhomes they sold 2 years or so ago and have been paying more than they originally sold them for. Buy a good one and you cant invest your money much better in a motor. We very rarely prebook anywhere we just head somewhere random and find a site on tinternet when we are ready to park up,we have never failed to find a pitch. I dont tend to wildcamp often though as I like a bevvy once parked.
