This is very much appreciated and observations from an owner is exactly what I hoped for before buying. Yes some might say biased, but I am certain others would say passionate and enthused! We plan some even longer trips next year and as my sister helpfully reminded me this morning because I now qualify for the Winter Fuel Allowance I didn't want to delay the purchase because another one might not come around soon!
You have answered our concerns and once again thanks for taking the time to give us your feed back Peter.
300 mile round trip tomorrow but I'm sure it will be worth it!
