Hi, I would like to reiterate what Pamela has said, we were in the same position as her, by putting our van on a Forest Holliday site at Setthorns for the season our existing insurers would not cover the van while we were not there as there are no fences or barriers. This was obviously no good...

Hi, I have got a Bailey Senator Arizona 2006 model fitted with an IDM4 alarm system and the key pad is wearing out so it can take ages to punch in your code number. Does anyone know of anywhere thet you can buy a new keypad for it. I have seen complete alarm systems for sale at about £180 but I...

Hi, I have a Bailey Senator Arizona 2006 model and I have a problem with one of the larger window blinds in so much that if you pull the blind at night or close it when the van is not in use, when you come to open it again it will not roll back in properly and crumples up. Do you know if there...

Can anyone give any advice regarding the use of Mobile Servicing, where they come to you to service your van. I have a Bailey Senator Arizona 2006 model and for me to take it to a dealer is quite dificult. Are the mobile people as good as a dealer and can anyone recomend a mobile servicer who...

Thank you all very much for your replies. That gives me a good idea what to do now.

Could anybody give me any advice regarding overwintering my caravan. I only got my first van this year and because my workload is high from now to the new year I wont be using it any more until next February. Is it advisable to put a de-humidifier in the van to keep it dry? or is this...

Thank you for that I have tightend the bolt up by about one turn and the floor is now creak free. I am also quite proud as at fifteen stone I managed to get under the van so I now consider myself slim, although the wife doesnt agree. Thanks again.

Thank you for that. I have the day off tomorrow so I will get underneath and have a look. I will let you know if it cures the noise

Hi, I have a one year old Bailey Senator Arizona and have exactly the same very annoying creaking floor when you walk over the axle area. Could you be more specific about where this screw is that needs tightening please. Other than this problem the van is superb Alan

Hi, thanks for your tips. I have made sure thet the van is level and I have managed to get the noseweight down to the required 75kg. but I have had to put virtually everything into the rear washroom. If I load over the axel I cant get below 95kg. It seems daft to me to have the facility to put...

Sorry, just to say a bit about ourselves. We are completely new to caravaning, never considered it before, we are in our late fifty's, well actually I am 60. We have two dogs and about to get a third and are looking forward to taking them and our grandson away to as many sites as posible. Still...

Hi, we are new to caravanining and are going to a site tomorrow for the first time. I have loaded the van but I cant get the noseweight down to 75kg. With the van empty the noseweight is 105kg. I have had to put everything well to the rear of the axel, in the rear washroom. Is this normal. I...

Hi, Can anyone give any advice on how to get the noseweight down. I have a Bailey Senator Arizona and when I collected the van I checked the noseweight and it was over a hundred kilo's with nothing in it except a gas bottle and a Aqua roll in the front locker. To get the weight down I had to...
