Default 1st outing with the V6 towing.

Just returned from our first outing towing our Coachman 520/4 ViP.

We made the relatively short trip to one of our favourite sites, Redgates at Maidens. It's just along the road from Trump Turnberry as its now known and the top man himself was visiting this weekend for the official re opening.

I think my invitation must have got lost in the post.
There was certainly plenty of security with at least one person at every entrance to the famous golf course and of course there were a few choppers going around.

We spotted Trump himself leaving in his own chopper doing a full circuit of the course and hotel before flying back to Prestwick I assume as I think it's from there he flies in & out on his various trips over to Turnberry.

I'm not a great lover of the man but he has done wonders transforming Turnberry hotel and golf course and creating some new jobs here in Ayrshire

Sorry for getting side tracked but yes the V6 performed well towing the van returning approx 23 mpg so I'm happy enough with that.
Amazingly the tow bar did not fall to pieces or kill anyone and yes I know I've promised photos, but I'm still catching up on quite a few jobs.

I'm now all set for towing the van for the Gretna meet next month.
