Hi everybody, Last year when we were a small family of 3; we accidentally bought an old caravan. It happened so suddenly and unplanned that we couldn't believe it for a long time. We just went to legoland for a weekend trip and came back home with 1.3 tonnes in the hook. To be honest we were quite on the low income…
Hi all. Hope you are all well. Unfortunately my 'dream' of buying a motorhome have not come to fruition but due to circumstances in my life the need and desire is still present to escape and tour - so am now looking at purchasing a caravan which is a lot cheaper. However, with there being differences to having a motorhome…
Hi to all, We bought a new van back before lockdown and obviously very excited to go away in it, we've been out and bought what we think is a good start to fill the van knives, kettle saucepans etc and will soon find out what we will need once we find out we haven't got it.

Hi Everyone, I have read earlier newbie posts and the helpful replies so won't ask same questions.

Thanks
Hi all First post, any advice greatly appreciated. We are going to buy our first caravan (used). We have fitted a tow bar to the Kia Sportage and I understand that the maximim weight of any caravan we tow should have a MTPLM of 1450kg. We will spend a few weekends looking at caravans to decide what layout will probably…

Are there any members who use oxygen (ambulatory or permanent) and able to carry on caravanning? How do you cope regarding cooking and heating?
can anybody tell me where the battery is located on a Peugeot boxer 2ltr Ellis’s auto quest 185? I would like to put a trickle charger on the battery as it is going to be stood for quite a while the current unpleasantness persists. Thanks. CharlieB.
