Basil .. Looks like a very good one. Is there a shower at one end of the ensuite in the pics? I recon that an ensuite arrangement is great, allowing privacy when 'toileting' and dressing. I have not seen this layout in a pop top B4.
Our big old 1999 21'6" Jayco has that sort of layout, not common for its time & we are still as much in love with it as when we got it. She who must be obeyed is pressuring me to install a washing machine .. but I resist. May not be able to show her your pic or your washer is the first thing that she will spot. (In case I relent, what sort is is & does it perform well?)
regards .. G

Are you kidding me Basil..that's your " humpy" isn't it. What a ripper ! I do believe there is even room for me to curl up on the lounge...mmmm....even the bed looks inviting for a grizzly.
But where is the Home Theatre and switch to activate the vibrating bed...guess corrugations will do that.
I'm envious...drooling on my keyboard.

Yeah the washing machine is now "essential"..... Ever since SWMBO opened the lid of one in Bathurst and discovered the reason no one else was using it was that a brown snake had somehow made itself home in there..... It's a "Lamair XQMB 20C".... does a very good job, holds a double bed sheet or 2 KG of "smalls" at a go, cold wash only. A normal was takes around 25 mins and the spin gets out most of the water. If you do try and allow yourself to be convinced that this may be a good idea DO NOT buy one from a caravan place, they will charge you heaps. You should be able to get on for around $280 from Hardly Normal or the Good Guys, they are on sale in Caravan places fro around $400....

We actually leave the Wurlitzer Organ at home and just take the Gramophone, it's clockwork so totally environmentally friendly.
