Just wondering who owns a Chausoon on this site ? There are no clubs that I know off ? Thought we could swap info :)
 
I assume the original post was serious despite the confusing reply's. Yes we have a Chausson Flash 04.

Thanks Dave was hoping to find out who and we can talk dealers parts good bits ect ect :) see if anyone else posts mine is a Chausoon suite relax, I have had it nearly a year. I really like it despite a few teething problems and my dint ;)
 
Had a Welcome 72 till 2012. Was OK, but after 18 mths realised we wanted a different layout. Might be able to help out if you have queries.
 
Ive recently bought a 2006 welcome 55, all good for last 1500 miles:-)
 
We have an "odd esse" 92 and it is my first MH It is a bit cumbersome and the rear bed drives me mad, it is a mile in the air and the ladder is very painful on the soles of the feet. The bottom bed is lumpy and difficult to set up as well.
The garage however is big enough for my little motorbike and I use that as a ship lifeboat/tender. 28mpg if I am good, but the Transit spares are cheap, if I needed any that is.
There is plenty of storage including the bit you bang you head on when you sit up in bed.
I think that I will probably change it later for something an bit smaller and lighter.

A few of us at the moment thanks for answering the sensible ones anyway :) my mattress is no good I have added a memory foam :)
I had my hab check yesterday and just to make Chausoon owners happy they are every good on staying dry :)
I also now have a direct contact with Chausoon in France if anyone wants to talk to them :)
 
We have had lots of problems with ours from leaks to engine failure bits falling off and doors not working we have a 2012 chausson suite. It has spent 4 months in total at the dealers and has nearly been rebuilt. Hubby went to pick it up 3 weeks ago for our holiday after it had more repairs and the guy went to show him what work had been done went to put the step out and it was making a grinding noise... The motor on the step had gone if anyone wants a full list of our problems pm me will take me a hour or so to list them.. Quality very poor but if you get from a good dealer problems get fixed. If you have a direct number for them penny would be great to get as hubby has emailed with no reply at all
 
We own a 2013 Chausson Maxi Suite. Bought from Elite in Banbury. Really good dealer and aftersales. The van has had some issues, mostly electrical regarding the patented vertical bike rack. Visited the factory last year as we were close and they sorted it. Very friendly and courteous from the factory aftersales team. No complaints from us, our previous Hymer hadjust as many issues. No manufacturer is perfect.

Oh wow answers :)
Hello :)
Mine is a suite relax 13 plate, lots small problems can't list it drove me mad for a year have switched off :) my dealer was hopeless and rude, as I keep saying he is in west wales :) which dealer have you found good ? Interesting that a visit turned up a curtious result. Once I started talking to them in France things have got better :) it's basically poor interior quality for me things broken and not replaced :(
I will look up that email :)

I was rather hoping to start a group as there seems to be nothing in the uk ?

Send it to Gilles Arnaude

I phoned and he speaks English in customer services :)

Gilles is excellent, we met him when we called at the factory, basically sat us down, gave us coffee and English magazines and took the van into the factory aftersales workshop. They fixed most of it before lunch but couldn't find one snag. Gave us the van back and said to have lunch and be back at the factory gate at 1.00pm. Got back as requested, mechanic waiting for us, fault found and back on the road an hour later. He also comes across to the UK every year and visits each dealer to check up on feedback and general dealer issues. The factory visit only works if it is a current model as they basically nip into the main factory and use them for spares. Chausson group sounds good, Penny
