    What caravans 2011-2014/15 are most leak or rot free?

    I’ve already posted a somewhat similar thread previously so this is the version 2, shall we say, of that. We’re after a used 4 berth, fixed double around the 2011-2014/15 years as that seems to suit our budget of £10k. Obviously the later vans have a more up-to-date interior & asthetics so...

    Fixed bed 4 berth van recommendations for 2011-2013 year

    Perhaps i should have said a budget instead of a year; budget is £10k and those years seemed to align with my budget. I'm intrigued by the SMART system. Whats the history or what year did it start? Did i read that early vans had a traditional floor with a bottom layer of grp?

    Replacement fridge

    Hi, Assuming I could physically get a domestic under-counter household 240v fridge in/out the front window, would it fit in the opening of the dometic one and then what becomes of the vents on the outside; are they part of the fridge? Has anyone done it?

    Kampa/domestic gale pump

    Folks I can’t seem to find anywhere with the dometic gale pump in stock. Has anyone any alternatives they would recommend and if so, are any adapters needed? FYI I’d probably prefer a 240v too. Tks.

    Need a new heater

    Hi all. Rite…so we need a new heater in the caravan. Technician was out and looked it over and it’s beyond economic repair. We’ve a s3002. The gas side appears to work…..well at least I lit it and saw it ignited through the small viewing hole. But anyway, I don’t like the thought of gas...

    Motor mover advice

    Hi, I’m concidering fitting a used motor mover to our lunar quasar. As it’s an older 2008 van I’m just going to put a used set on it. I’ve no idea on what’s a good or bad make but there’s a purple line set has came up local for £250. To me they don’t seem bad at that money but I’ve no idea...

    Newbie - Truma heating issue

    What’s your views on fitting a diesel heater in the front locker connected to the existing duct work? All these ideas I have and the simplest is just to get my truma working.lol

    Newbie - Truma heating issue

    I have briefly looked at the truma website and they do one but it’s appears to be to supplement a combi heater so unsure if the fan on it would be adequate but even if it was it is pricey.

    Newbie - Truma heating issue

    Just thinking out loud here but is there such a unit as an all electric blown air system where by you could potentially connect it to the existing ductwork basically bypassing the truma 3002?

    Newbie - Truma heating issue

    Hi all. I’ve just got myself a 2008 lunar quasar but unfortunately the electric heating isn’t working. The person/dealer I bought it off didn’t want to spend money fixing it as it could have left it too expensive which I understand. The gas should be working but I’ve no intention of using it...
