    The motorhome "race" ?

    Other than TopGears typical hooliganism :D and motorhome/caravan bashing, it was quite scary to see how appallingly bad some of these things handled and how frighteningly quick they desintegrated.

    Just a tad OTT for my liking.

    Main problem is size though, that thing is as big as a large touring coach, not many places you can get to with that, certainly not in Ireland.

    only one bedroom as well? 750,000 would buy a lot of hotel stays!

    Anyone like to donate a vehicle and we could have our own race in Mondello?
    They did look a bit flimsy allright.
    Have you seen the Hymer crash test on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k6kwYMQlp0w

    Looks fairly robust for a headon collision.

    £750k is a bit much alright! Great bus if you were able to take a year off and tour around the states. It would be ideal. (If you had the £750k it would be handy too) BTW that was £750k without the car!!!:eek:

    At a motothome show in the US last year I got talking to some of the dealers. They mentioned that because they are motor"homes", people could purchase and write off income tax against them.
