I stand corrected, apologies to all owners of classic Hymers,I might have guessed it was a daft Dethleffs owner.:lol-053:

You'd better apologise to Wully while you are at it. Wully owns a Dethleffs and he likes it very much!

Phew, had me worried there... I think he may have been trying for a better TV picture, sometimes 3in makes all the difference.

Don't worry I do understand all of us who buy German quality are always gonna get it wether it be hymer or dethleff poor guy must've been craping it looks like he had a lucky escape. But that dethleff could have fallen a couple of hundred feet and there wouldn't even been a scratch on it there made out of cryptonite well that's what the salesman told me when he took all my money

You should not state that 3" makes all the difference with a name like Bigusdickus:lol-053:

That's the worst piece of levelling, I've ever seen.

Zooming in on the iPad, it looks like a continental registration (NL - maybe)

Right, so the driver's lack of spatial awareness might be substance related!

I always think that a front wheel drive van, could get stuck like that in the wet on a slope, Is that one FWD?
I got stuck on a tight bumpy grass area that was meant to be a POI parking area in the hills at Conway. Was really worrying but I did get out in the end, being Automatic it did not like the high torque reversing. I swear the gearbox smelt like burning tar, when I found a place shortly after at the pier at Bangor, but it is a fluid flywheel not a clutch. It was probably a roof repair that I smelt, but it was not nice.

Yes you can overheat a fluid clutch, that's why they have coolers for the ATF.

It's a scary enough road if you meet some one coming the other way in a car, let alone a Motorhome
