    With comments like that from Trellis, one could take a fence.

    £13 for fish and chips!!!  Did they have them still swiming in a tank and you chose the one you wanted?

    If you do a postcode search on their website you can find the nearest to your location.

    £25.35 from Lowdhams (Nottm) today....and they still have about 5 in stock - but for how long?  Apparently they've had a few each week for the last 2/3 weeks...is this the sign of a change of plan within Calor?

    Perhaps CAMC could get an update for the members?

    I paid £25.00 for a Calorlite at the Calor Dealership, they had plenty in stock. Also noticed that some of the CC sites have them in stock as well.

    Still available as refills from many stockists but here is the latest recommend price and explanation as to their future straight from the 'horse's mouth'!

    Does anyone know what the situation is about the replacement design for calorie lite bottles and when it will be available?  I see nothing on the web post 2017.  They are being very quiet about the replacement even though they said .... Over a year ago ... That the replacement was expected to be available late 2018. ... To my mind that's imminent!

     No where on the website that you can email, just the suggestion you can write to them at Warwick.  As its close perhaps I should go down and ask!    A convoy of caravans would be good!

    perhaps I should try and hawk my lite cylinders to the local agents in the hope ....

    I have looked at this link to the calor website, it's all very old information, that was released when they first commented on the problems.   It's well over a year since we were told these cylinders were being withdrawn.  But it's suggested that retailers are still getting supplies.whats really happening?

    I don’t think there is much of a problem getting exchange refills for existing users. They no longer supply to new users. Retailers I have exchanged at this year still seem to be receiving their stock when reordering.

    Calor don't seem to attend the NEC these days so I couldn't ask them for an update when I was there today!

    You were spot on Corners.

    I swapped a colorlite last year (in the color depot in Fakenham) I think I paid about £32.  I won't be doing that again as I now have safefilllaughing

    My experience this year is that there was no problem with supply of Lite cylinders at CAMC sites we visited in the Cotswolds, Southern England and South West. However in the North West and Yorkshire supply seems to be more patchy with the last site visited unable to get any from their depot. From my recollection I paid £25 for a cylinder at a site in Devon in July.

    I was in Southdown Motorhomes a week or two back and they had the list of prices of various cylinder refills on the counter. I thought Calor were bad enough but the camping Gaz 907's are positively eye-watering.

    Camping Gaz 907 was £26 or £27 the other side of A27's Farlington roundabout at the gas stockist in Portsmouth Truckstop. [last month]

    Again a bit painful but better than I found elsewhere outside France.

    I went there about eighteen months ago only to discover that they no longer do autogas.
