    Love your van and the layout. Having the bike is a major plus. I have a small motorcycle as well and it makes life so much easier with a larger rig. I agree that finding parking spots in the UK is a challenge, but possible. Europe is so much easier....

      I drove a 307D in the 80s and it was the most hated vehicle on the fleet - and my personal most hated thing I have ever driven.
      The headlights were like candles on a stormy night, the starter motor kept needing a good wallop, the gear selector mechanism was more of a hope than an active decision by the driver, and the engine noise from lack of insulation meant you couldn't hear yourself think let alone the radio... if it was working of course.
      However, this awesome couple have done a grand job with this variant and I wish them many happy miles.

      @@doodlesbug I think the 307s were a smaller vans, but I never drove one. The 814 vario was a bit low geared for motorway work and I much more enjoyed the 814 truck, box wagon tbh. More comfortable and just better for the job.

      @@WalksInCamera You're right, the 307 was similar sized to the Ford Transit of the day. The other vehicles we had then were Leyland Sherpa then it was a step up to Ford Cargo 7.5t. That would have been just about the time of the Ford/IVECO merger... blimey I feel old now!

    You need a residential address for the vehicle log book, a driving licence and insurance, as well as banks account, HMRC, etc etc.
    How you overcome this?
    Also how you access GP surgeries?

    That 30k ish is well and good to put it on an old bus(reliable this types), but it's not like you arent throwing money down the drain. I do appreciate the utopia and the freedom (debatable) people seek, but the older you get and playing at carefree no roots earthling, the harder in your older days, to live a comfortable less stress life. You put any of this vehicles up for sale and you won't get much back. I have a self built camper cause I love the freedom... Bug I would never get rid of my home to just ride into the horizon... Yeah it's great, but I know people that lived that lifestyle and now they live in shared accommodation. Nowadays is harder to park whenever you want. But they said it's harder to get in the property ladder... But 30k is more than a deposit for a mortgage.. Unless you want to live in Belgravia...
