Alan and Corina are pictured collecting their Chausson 640 Titanium Premium Automatic motorhomes from our showroom in Herne Bay, having just completed a thorough hand-over with Jonathan Light, workshop engineer at TC’s

These two weren’t hanging about either... After saying farewell to TC Motorhomes, they immediately set off for the Lake District,  and over the next week or so a few more UK locations, to meet up with friends and relatives before a much longer journey south.

After a couple of weeks in the midlands, they head back down south again for the long journey down to Spain, where the sunshine and Sangria beckons !

Shane Catterick, Jonathan Light and the rest of the team at T C Motorhomes wish Alan & Corina the best of luck in their new adventure !
