Thanks all..and thanks for the buying tips... the responses are probably what I expected but give me reassurance that we are all in the same boat and basically its a bit of a gamble and pot luck,, It could be a gem or likewise it could be a turkey,,,,The plan now is to go and have a look at a...

Hi aLL.. We have just sold our trusty 2009 Lunar Lexon SE and now looking to upgrade,,, We have seen a 2017 Compasss Capiro 554 that we are going viewing on Sunday.. Has anyone any experience of this specific van or the Capiro range or Compass in general... Obviously I am aware that it is a...

Thanks all for your comments...excatly the same here that the toggles don`t fit into the loops..or at least not all of them (along the length of the awning). Will cobble something up with small zip ties or ribbon type cord through the awning loops so the liner toggles will fit... That`ll be the...

Back in mid September 2017 I purchased a 65 plate Mazda CX5 SPORT NAV AWD Auto 2,2 diesel which I loved.. It had 10k on the clock.. now its mid February 2018 and it has nearly 18k on the clock so a decent bit of mileage done,, Today I have had to get the AA out to it due to the low oil...

Hi...I have treid both prizing and screwing ( :unsure: ;) ) but as the lights seem fairly "flimsy" (and pardon the pun) light duty I don`t want to try the wrong one too hard,Just in case it I break it...Was just enquiring if anybody knew the right way before I put a bit of "oooomph" behind my...

Hi,, I have a recently bought my first tourer a Lunar Lexon SE 2009... Anybody any ideas or links to how to change the spotlight bulbs in the lounge and bed area....I have tried poking screwdrivers in every crevice I can find (on the light fitting !!) but to no avail.. I don`t want to poke to...

Hi Thanks for the response.. link below to another photo.. I think the 3 black bendy poles are for the curved frontage.. the 2 double flat ended adjustable poles for the roof supports and thought the 2 adjustable spiked one end with rubber bung the other end are possibly for against the...

Hi.. Thanks for the comments.. yes there are other poles... 3 "bendy" ones for the curved frontage.. then I am presuning this but 2 adjustable alluminium ones for the roof and a further 2 adjustable ones for against the van ,its just these with the clips on that I am baffled with.
