Get back in the van Ian, you know it makes sense,today marks our third year full timing I would go back to bricks and mortar if some one paid me. I suffered high blood pressure and had a bout of shingles before we got out of the house, havn't had a problem since and have never needed any...

I was also curious about these when I first saw the layouts, but after taking a good scout around their website it would appear that they are more akin to selling wooden garden sheds / stables and summer houses, I thought they were going to be something differant but at the end of the day it's...

John, your dealer has to honour your warrenty as your warrenty is with the suppling dealer not Avondale....Mark

hello Kelly, I think it's blindingly obvious that these so called pdi's never take place, this is not just bailey dealers but most, you only have to read through posts on these forums to realize that, as caravanners we spend thousands on these products only to be faced with months of trips to...

couldn't agree more Joan, I'd like to know what actually gets checked in the pdi, I have had so many faults on my Ace it is unbeleivable how they get away with selling such shoddy workmanship. Mark
