In reply about buying an older motorhome, we too, purchased a Foretravel GrandVilla which was used. We made the purchase in 2002 and the coach was 9 years old with 88,000 miles on it. We the coach physically was in good condition, and seemed very well built. It had complete maintenance records and the usual repairs. We did get a very good price, and considered the risk and went for it. We did have a major repair with an engine overhaul, but feel very comfortable with knowing everything is in good condition. The fuel injectors needed to be replaced. We have replaced the water heater, heater thermostats and new tires, plus the fuel line from the tank to the generator. So really considering the well built coach we purchased and the money we saved versus what we had to spend on repairs we feel we made the right choice. Now for my question to Brette Wolfe, you mentioned you had to replace the refrigerator. Well, how did that go? Smoothly we hope, as we have the same year model of Foretravel. Did they have problems removing the unit and did you find one that exactly fit the opening of the previous unit. If you wouldn't mind let us know the brand and model number, just in case this is a future fix. 4travel4/2-1993 Bonnie Kollorz
