Hi From Steve

by CAMP201 Wed Sep 07, 2011 8:39 am

Hello there all - I'm Steve from Norwich and I am the proud owner of Mavis - 1985 vintage Talbot Talisman - which I love dearly. However I'm on the verge of upgrading to a much more modern Ravenna and thought I'd join this forum in the hope of learning a bit more about the upsides and downsides of the newer model. I'll also try to keep an eye on more general topics. Cheers, Steve.

The main thing you will notice is more modern equipment such as the Hot Water and 12v/240v Electrics.
Interesting choice of a replacement model. Most owners of these Talbot Talisman vans go for a Boxer based one or an Executive. The Ravenna you have obviously seen and have
realised that you will gain quite a bit more storage space. The Ravenna was available with either a Ford or Pugeot chassis, never driven the boxer based one but my neighbour had a Tranny based one and it performed well
