    storage in leicestershire

    Hi, We store our caravan in Blaby, on a secure caravan storage compound. It has CCTV, electronic gates, and we're really happy with it. When we went on the list, I think it was 3-4 months before we got our spot, but that was a few years ago, and they have extended it since. If Blaby is any good...

    Hello Clive, Thank you very much for all your help. The Agreed Valuation policy seemed to be exactly what we are looking for, and we have since found an insurance company who offer this, thanks to your advice. Thanks again.

    manual / help ABI Award Morningstar

    Hi, I don't know if this will be any use to you, but we own a 1996 ABI Award Northstar. I would imagine electrics, water systems etc will be the same, in fact I'm sure the book is generic to all Awards at that time. I think your van is the same layout as well, so if you're interested, email me...
