Morning, My husband and I are picking up our first caravan next week (1996 Hobby Prestige) and hope to head off for weekend with our two dogs. Looking for any tips or advise you can share with us. We're based in North East Scotland and will stay in that region for our first couple of trips out. Our main reason for getting…
I have blown the 12v plug thingy. I plugged in a 12v hairdryer into the cigarette lighter adaptor and I think I've blown a fuse. I'm on electric hook up and when I plugged in my tv into mains supply there was no signal and I found out that the red light on the Status pack was out. Now I am hunting for the fuses for the 12v…
Hi All, I'm new to caravanning and have just purchased my very first caravan, a lightweight 1997 Lunar Meteor, to see if we like caravan adventures. The van had a leak which was fixed by a mobile repair company last week and we now have running water, hurrah! However, our excitement was short lived as the heater failed to…

I actually couldn't wait to get there on the Sunday morning. There were 5 of us newbies and Keith was the instructor. He was able to answer every…
I am currently on a CL site no electric. Been using gas to heat my water, all fine until this morning.

Do people come out and…

I am buying a Peugeot Boxer based motorhome with 18000 miles on the clock, however the registration is 1999 and the mileage is genuine. Normally the cam belt would be changed at a much higher mileage but does the age of the engine have any bearing on the change time - do the cam belts deteriorate over time? The vehicle has…
