We did it! A Goldstream coming our way!

Hi All,
I loosened the purse strings today.............................and paid the deposit on a VERY slightly secondhand 2007 Goldstream "Storm" camper with the reverse configuration layout. It's only been used a couple of times and still appears to have plastic coverings on some of the fittings.

We've been thinking about this option to replace our trusty camper trailer(with a soft floor) for the past year or so - especially since #1 son arrived in September 06. Hey, whats $30 odd grand anyhow?

The Missus likes the idea of a hard floor camper after spending 6 months living in our trailer while travelling Oz in 2002. She was happy with it, but the cold got to her - bloody Poms!

After much research prior to this, we decide that this was a brand we could live with. It was a case of "you get what you pay for".

Pity is, I'm in Adelaide and the trailer is in Brisbane, but a road trip is half the fun! Time to service the Prado and organise leave. Besides, I got a quote today for $1815 to trailer it down here - bugger that. Especially after my last experience with transport companies!

On a more serious note, I've read several archived threads on Goldstream campers and they all appear to be positive, so hopefully it will do the job for us.

Tips, Tricks and Improvements on this model most welcome from owners.

***Our trusty fold out Taj-Mahal will be appearing in the Classifieds in the next few weeks. Some photos are already on "my profile".*** I'll have a Flyer ready soon to send out to interested people.

Bring it on!

Cheers, Matt
