hi, Sorry if this is a daft question. I'm new to caravanning! I'm setting off to Cornwall this week and want to leave at 2am to miss most of the traffic. Ideally id like to hook it up to the car on the drive, removing the wheel locks. That way when i get the family up to go at 2am when can jump in the car and set off…

Just one (1999 Coachman amara 480/4). One of you fine folk insisted there must be 2, I've had a look at the manual, and it implies there should be 2 as well.…
