Does anybody have pics of the new Goldstream models built from fibreglass sandwich rather than ally extrusion?

Been, seen, conquered.  Great show again this year.  A step closer to our final purchase.

Went yesterday, agree with the hot comment. Such a bewildering array of options to upgrade.

We actually came away without buying anything, I couldn't believe it. There is always something that you have to have.

Looks like our 10 year old Kimberley still keeps it's spot in the garage. We couldn't see the value in the change over price to anything else, they simply can't be that much better.

We did have a wander through some of the 5th wheeler options, I reckon they are more luxurious than our house (and about the same size). And I know they cost more than our house did as well.

We are back and it was a bit warm but in the shade and with the breeze it was OK. Left home at 0810 arrived home at 1525 included a stop at a cafe in Malvern East (Very nice) and then a stop at Anaconda Fountain Gate.
Picked up a few small things and some big ideas for mods.

Yep certainly did. Threw the dog in as well. He didn't like it but he was cool.

Went yesterday and had a ball...barely left the camper trailer section. There are some amazing machines out there. We left without spending any coin although my wife thought I was pretty close to writing a cheque for a new Cameron...maybe next year. It sure ticks every box I can think of for us!

We too went yesterday, and was so impressed.  Lots to see, lots to buy if you knew what you were looking for.  Thanks to all of you who replied to my questions on this thread, it was so helpful that I picked up some ripper deals.  We now have all we need for our 100 series, so bring on the trips away and see ya at the next years show!

We went on Sunday... very hot!! But the teens found respite inside with airconditioning, tables with tvs and free wi-fi... where there's a will, there's a way!! They actually thanked us for a GREAT day.... they spent 6 and a half hours sitting up there....lol.
We had a great day, only looked at CTs and some of the accessories... so much to look at!
We ended up putting a deposit on our first CT, a red rock camper built in Cambellfield, Northern suburbs of Melb.
We also bought a fishing seat which has attachments for holding 2 rods and a stubby holder. Inside the seat is a little esky, tackle box, knife etc and chopping board. The seat is also padded and it swivels....lol, very flash. Comes with everything apart from the fish!!
It was our first show, but won't be our last.
