In an encounter with a lorry on a roundabout my old (1996) Avondale lost a 52 x52 cm. window and the awning rail on the offside was badly mangled. Does anybody know where I might find new or recycled re-placements. None of the clubs listed breakers /suppliers have been able to help.

    Can you try the WANTED section of Preloved or Gumtree?  Best of luck with the hunt.  It sounds as though it might have been a lot worse.

    The Avondale parts left after the company went down were purchased by Magnum of Hull but these have probably dried up by now.

    EECO will make a window to match at a price, but the awning rail may be difficult to source but you could try a couple of dealers to see if they have any ideas.

    Good luck.

    Thank you Pipphah45 and Wildwood for your replies. I knew about Magnum and found the  price of a new widow eye watering, but I suppose needs must. Search for awning rail goes on !!

     

    Thanks again
