    Well in that case they waste their time on me. There is very little that I seek to acquire and I can see nowhere in my life that might give an opportunity to influence me in reality. 

    Everything that I have bought in the last 10 years, for example, is because I had a practical need and then researched he options to fulfil that need. If my need was to store a caravan where access was limited then this caravan might have fulfilled such a need.

    At the end of this video it shows how the floor folds up and the sides slide in, Impressive. Only trouble is that you might be able to park in a small area but you can't load or unload until it is open.

    Having seen the video I”m impressed. It’s a good example of innovative design engineering. If it’s the same as the one at the NEC, build quality is good too.

    However, despite your claim that marketers shouldn’t waste time on you, by posting that video, you (and others here) have unwittingly become part of their marketing machine. Therefore, not withstanding the ‘over there’ phobics and Shakespeare, whether you want one or not, you have become part of the viral marketing campaign. That’s my point.

    It doesn't affect me personally with regard to my buying choices however Bill. 

     

    Very impressive Alan but what seemed to be lacking was storage space. I have noticed this problem in "pop tops" but this design seems to take  it to a new level, I have a caravan with more cupboards than we dare fill and still have stuff in the car.

    There is a decent wall of storage in the central area and I suppose other things can be dumped on the floor there in transit but a definite lack of permanent storage in bedroom and sitting areas. The irony is that it has a decent user payload of, I suspect, about 250 - 300kg after a few extras and the company reckon that they will be moving to a cellular material for the walls and save approx 100kg. So whilst you have plenty of storage space and would like more weight allowance .....

    You don't pay nigh on 30,000 Euro to do 12 weekends a year though.

    There's bound to be one appear on a CC site in the not too distant future, owned by "he who must have the latest & different model".

    no it wouldn't as you can't divide by 0, and/or anyway any number divided by 0 is not infinity (forever) wink
