We Crashed the Motorhome in Morocco!

After just 3 days in Morocco, our van has sustained its first “adventure wound”. The capital of Morocco, Rabat, is a great city with a wonderful Medina and fantastically friendly people. However our experience was soured by some dreadful directions and damage to our Motorhome. Join us for 24 hours in Rabat with some crazy highs and lows.
If you guide yourself in, this is a great park up for the centre of Rabat for just £9 per night: maps.app.goo.gl/tGX7h6GtbVN33...
Our family have been roaming around the UK, Europe and US since 2007. We set off on each trip with only a rough destination in mind, allowing the roads we take and places we stop to evolve as we meet new friends along the way.

You’re in the right place for repairs. Our side door spring broke so the door wouldn’t shut in Morocco. Two chaps fashioned a new spring out of a piece of sprung steel pulled from a cycle tire and wound round a pen, cost a few dirhams and a pair of socks, it fitted and worked so well it didn’t need changing. Also had a flat on our tag axel, got it changed in the most unlikely looking garage and all fine. Carry on and enjoy your trip.

Blimey...if thats a crash! I think it's more a clickbait title! You guys make good enough content without having to resort to those tactics....they kinda suck tbh. I'm sure that damage can be sorted out rather easily. Enjoy ya holiday and worry about that when you return.

There's a RU-vid channel called 'Macmaster' who gets slated for clickbait but his reply is that companies have clickbait style 'Grab your attention slogans' like DFS sale ending on Sunday....which never ends. etc. To be fair all the work involved into filming/editing and it's costs us nothing other than a bit of electric, RU-vidrs will do clickbait to earn for the graft.

I honestly wish that was reflected in viewing figures. We know our loyal viewers will probably watch anyway, but the simple fact is that a new viewer can only see the title and thumbnail and we have to entice them to click our video rather than another. We wish it weren’t that way, but it is.!

I feel for you with regard to the damage. I ripped the gas locker door off after a disagreement with a French Peage. It took a couple of days to calm down then I just got on to enjoy the rest of my holiday. The Auto Sleeper repair centre sorted it out on my return and did the most fantastic job. The Rabat market reminds me of Istanbuls covered bazaar.

The yellow fruit was a prickly pear, you see them growing all over large cacti. Cut off each end, score the skin and peel, the skin is quite thick. Eat the rest, including the seeds. We eat them often in southern France near Spain, but I have never seen a dragon fruit. Thanks for a great video. Your sons are getting a great cosmopolitan education in their holidays. Great life.

Hi all, sorry to see the damage to your van. I just thought I would mention what we do when travelling in our motorhome that has got us out of some tight spots. I'm sure you've thought of this, we use radio's. I jump out and navigate to my husband, there has been times when he hasn't seen the dangers that I could see. It's a really simple solution. It's really awful when you damage your van, enjoy the rest of your travels. Be safe x

Look for some white tape to cover it to stop water getting in . Fill it when you get back home then stick a graphic over the top to hide if you can't match the paint.have a good time now.
@andyglawe7804
@andyglawe7804 11 месяцев назад
We usually carry clear tape for these occassions, which is a heavy duty tape like gaffa tape but totally clear. Useful for taping up to stop damp ingress and it doesn't look unsightly. Not sure if you can get some in Morocco. We ripped a piece off the bottom skirt when entering an aire in Spain. Found said piece took it home and fibreglassed it back in place. Looks like new. Probably repairable without replacing the whole piece I would say.

Well we had similar happen. First. Tape it to protect from rain. Get a polyester expect to do the necessary, a boat yard should be able to do it. If it leaves a slight mark then you are the man to make a graphic design to hide any unevenness.

Looks like a small dent, but still annoying to know it could have been avoided. Glad you are unbeaten and positive about it. Fruits and vegetables are a feast for the eyes in Morocco and they are fresh and cheap.You bought exotic red dragon fruit and Kiwano ( ripe when yellow). Patisseries and bakeries are lovely and buzzing round the clock, like bees you saw ( not wasps). Don't forget to treat yourself at least once to a Riad stay and a Hammam while in Morocco. You will love the experience. Looking forward to your next video!

The first damage is always the worst on a new van, I feel for you. But don't let it ruin your holiday. I damaged mine on a sign that unfortunately said "No Motor Caravans" whilst in New Brighton. So I know that sickly feeling in your stomach. Try to get sone White Duct Tape for a Temp repair and hopefully you will not look at it every time you walk past it.

A friend directed us to a caravan doctor, he came to our house to repair the damage, perfect job and a third of the price

I too had damage but mine was self inflicted , initially the insurance directed me to a lorry repair garage who wanted to just repair the damage .I spoke to this garage and decided. I would prefer as it was new to take it back to the supplier who are a Burstner recommended repairer ! However despite having to fit replacement panels didn’t do a great job and I had to correct their poorly fitted panels . So in conclusion I would go to a recommended repairer by word of mouth and you should be fine because of the exposure of your channel . Another interesting consequence of the accident/claim was that my insurance went down on renewal but they informed my motorcycle insurer and that went up .

Argh the guardians are great if they would just sit back and make sure no one robs the vehicle. Unfortunately they have to try and help, yesterday I was reversing into a spot and the guardian got between me and the vehicle behind me and gestured for me to keep coming. In Tangiers there is a legless guardian in a wheelchair I wonder if he lost his legs pulling a stunt like that. Hope the damage is repaired soon

Ask for mint tea “Berber Whiskey”, with no sugar. As you’ve seen, Moroccans have a very sweet tooth.

Speak to the guys at East Coast Fibreglass. They do gelcoat repair kits that can be colour matched to your van. Your local bodyshop could easily do the job. They have a RU-vid channel, showing how to do it..

Why they plant palms every where in Morocco ? Is it sacred tree there ?
@RoamingRadfords
@RoamingRadfords 11 месяцев назад
🤷🏼‍♀️ Maybe because date palms grow well here? Food and shade?
