Hello everyone, I'm John from Anna Bay. We've just changed from a Freedom to a 16.49-1. With my wife Sue we did the big trip in the Freedom and thought it deserved a rest !
The shakedown trip in the Expanda went well and after it's 1,000km service we are heading North to Port Douglas for the winter.
This is a brilliant forum with lots of tips and good advice - I refer to it quite a lot because as a new owner it's good to get the tricks of the trade from people who have "been there - done that".

G'day John and welcome. Did you get any extras on your van? Is it the 1 or the 1b? We have the 1b and love it.

Hi Kenshi it's the 1b - and we like it also, no extras (as yet) apart from extra gas bottle and bayonet fittings.

Hi @John Metcalfe , beautiful part of the world you come from even though I'm not that far away!
Welcome and thats a great setup you have and love the NL! Great model!

I like to spend a lot of time up your way being 40mins away as often as possible and you get to live there!
