Classic camper or a new camper?

A doubt that wasn’t a big one for me (I wanted a classic camper), but in the end, this choice made me second-guess myself...

My preference was to buy a classic camper, a 1979 Mercedes.


In August 2021, I bought my first camper, and it needed a lot of work, especially mechanically! So, it was a decision that made me doubt for a while after spending a lot of money, wondering if I had made the right choice.


In hindsight, no. I think I shot myself in the foot by buying a camper without someone knowledgeable to help, I was once again too enthusiastic and impulsive...

As a result, I had many repair costs and the camper had to spend long periods in the garage.New hoses, a new radiator, a new oil reservoir, a new glow plug switch, a broken clutch, etc.


There were many moments when I thought, "Hmm... does it still make sense, and is this investment still worth it, or should I sell my classic camper and look for a new one?"

I’ve now decided, since so much has already been replaced, to continue repairing my camper until I reach my set limit, because it still has to be fun, of course!
