Winnebago Adventurer - - easy parking, economical, double bed in GOONENGERRY, New South Wales for sale
An easy vehicle to use around town, no problem parking in a supermarket car parking space or on a small caravan site. A delight on long trips as she drives like a car. A Fiat Ducato diesel engine, front wheel drive averaging 10l per 100kms. Sleeps two adults and one child comfortably without having to make the double bed each night. She has a huge storage area under the bed across the full width of the campervan. Ideal for single person or couple travelling around Australia or a small family on lengthy holidays.
The front wheel drive gives excellent traction on steep unsealed roads in the rain. Low mileage, one owner, regularly serviced and with a recent NSW blue slip for transferring rego from its ACT plates.
She has a full length Fiama awning, roof mounted air conditioner, a Webasto diesel-fired heater, a water filter, Fiama three bike rack at the rear and an additional shower on the outside. She has a set of snow chains, insultating windscreen covers, and a solar panel attached to an inverter and the house battery.
We have travelled with her mostly up and down the east coast on 5 week trips, until we found a place to settle in the Byron Shire. We have hardly moved since and she is just waiting for longer trips than weekend camps. We lent her to friends recently for a trip up the waterfall way, and were reminded of what an easy vehicle she is to live in and travel with. They kept on extending their holiday they loved it so much.
Here is a fuller description quoted from a review site:
"The Adventurer motorhome has been designed with the working person very much in mind – a vehicle that can easily be used around town but one which is also instantly available for the getaway weekend (or longer) trip.
External storage is good, with a rear right-through storage compartment that’s large enough for two sets of golf clubs and a couple of fold-up bikes.
Inside the Adventurer, Winnebago has opted for an across-the-rear double bed, nearside kitchen, offside bathroom and dinette behind the driver’s seat. Decor design is Winny’s ‘Euro look’ – darker stained timber with curved overhead locker doors and Seitz windows.
All of the latter have the usual integrated blind and insect screen, as well as full curtains which are also fitted around the driver’s cab.
At the rear, the 6ft 4in x 4ft 2in (1.9m x 1.3m) double bed occupies all the space. It’s set slightly higher than usual to accommodate the storage area underneath and is surrounded by windows on three sides.
The offside end of the bed has two halogen reading lights and, very usefully, there’s a shelf at either end of the bed. Storage consists of three overhead lockers across the rear and two large underbed drawers.
Because of the motorhome’s size, it’s no real surprise that the kitchen is compact but it does have all the essentials: two-burner Cramer cooktop, stainless steel sink sans drainer and Dometic RM 4400 103L fridge.
Up front, Winnebago has made the best use of available space. The dinette table sits behind the driver’s seat and both driver and passenger seats swivel around, thus making a small but comfortable dining⁄lounge area for up to four people. The dinette seat also has two seatbelts for passengers.
In the bathroom was a real surprise – a moulded fibreglass setup, the like of which CW has not seen before, which contained shelves, cabinets, water resistant loo roll holder and little storage compartments.
Directly behind the passenger seat is a large hanging cupboard. Given the intended nature of the Adventurer, ie, short-term use, a shelf or two in the lower cupboard might be useful.
A motorhome this size will go most places that a large 4WD or light commercial van can – a major advantage in places like supermarket car parks and when driving around town."
