Nice   is that the new Hobby?

Very smart.  Wifey wants to know what model it is too as she's looking to buy us one?

Does it come in 'man pink' to go with my X6?

How much did that cost !?

Any interior pics ?

[X5Sport]

A lot, and it is a Hobby.  Lovely interiors and well made.  A lot of their stuff is too heavy or too long for anyone but the....er......"Tarmac your drive sir?" teams.......

Those that can be towed by an X are well over £35k last time I looked, some a LOT more.

Still nice kit though.

[Don Coffey]

Joking aside, it was a loaded question as I'm sure the plan is to tow with the X, however it will be illegal as once the body is over 7m it requires a vehicle with a max weight limit of 7.5t or greater, ie a small lorry. Even Transits, Sprinters aren't allowed to tow these legally.  Now that said, I could be mistaken but it does look like one of the bigger Hobby models from the picture. While on the subject, you must also have mirrors fitted that can clearly see down the entire side of the caravan.

Hi yes it's a new premium cost  £23k

It's our second premium the last one was 3years old it was fantastic and this ones even better

Looking forward to next year just got to get the awning sized up

Think the picture makes it look huge but it's not even the biggest there are two bigger ones available  one being 9.5 m long

Ah so you got the shit one then because Richard said above that they should be at least £35k !  :xmastongue:

Do they depreciate much?

[allforus]

Hi paid £20k for the last one and had it 3 years and got £15500 for it so was very pleased with that

[535dboy]

as you should be

so what does it cost per week to pitch up on a site or do you just disused carparks?

[allforus]

Now now just because it's a hobby  ::)
