Our new (to us) wagon.

Gulfstream Conquest LE

RHD, made for UK market and appeared in MMM in 1993, anyone got a copy? :) - only 5 of them in the UK allegedly.

6.2 Litre Diesel, on board Genny and I suppose all the usual American add ons, Air Con, Cruise Control etc I'm an RV newbie.







There were a few Craic'ers in it on NYE16 :lol: :lol:

Best of luck with it Ally!

You'll soon get used to the first question most folks ask when they see it.... "how many miles to the gallon"...

Forget how many litres of fuel, but I reckon £150 would fill it from empty.

Might be worth getting yourself an Asda credit card for the Fuel (1% cashback) if you don't have one.
