18' Series Expanda 18.57-8 has finally arrived

[NissPat]

....the last of this model

Well, after months of waiting and wishing it was already here it has finally arrived....wooohoooo.

Spent most of the arvo at the dealers(Jayco Canberra) who have been the most pleasant and easy to deal with people(brothers) sorting out the final bits and pieces. I would not hesitate to recommend these guys to anyone. The whole experience has been just outstanding and very professional .

OK, the pics are coming boys and girls...settle down.

Hope they're not too big...might be tho.....


ALSO THIS IS NO WAY A PLUG FOR THE BUSINESS MENTIONED ABOVE...just satisfied with the service....happy customer! ​

Yeah, I'm pretty happy how it sits and tows. The little 4 banger had no problems towing, used 20l/100 on the way home but I had to go through suburbia streets as there was an accident.
Might give it a test run this weekend to see how it goes on the highway and how the suspension works...hopefully beaudiful mate!

The door is access door to storage area under the lounge seat. Too bloody hard getting in there from inside so it is now an external storage area. Only about 100 bucks extra.

No motor mods except a catch can. Yeah pulls ok for a little donk but nothing special. I'll give it a run up Clyde Mountain next weekend....that tests them all out...LOL
..haha the 4.2 no doubt will get you there slowly but surely

Hey Niss , My lovely wife asks what size bet sheets fit the two bed ends . Double or Queen mate or if anyone else knows.
Cheers.

 

[NissPat]

Hey Doggy,

Bed sheets, what are they???? LOLOL
The missus reckons she has a queen up the front and double at the back and seem to fit OK. They are very roomy beds by the way
