Hi everyone We’re currently sited on a pitch where the nearest water point is up a steep hill and want to use my onboard tank as my aqua roll ran out as I was soapy and showering the other day :( :lol: so I wanted to be able to switch without having to trundle up the hill soaking wet to...

Just checked the plate by the front door and it has the name of manufacturer, serial number, then four boxes with numbers starting with top box 0- 1476kg 1- 100kg 2- 1550kg N/A kg Then under that is Miro 1373kg MTPLM 1476kg Tire size. Tyre pressure Wheel bolt...

Hi Lutz I’ve looked in my front locker for the plate you mentioned but the only thing I can find is my CRIS number plate. The caravan was built May last year, 2017. If that’s any help? :huh:

Haha :lol: you are right Otherclive, I’ve watched people take out just about everything you could fit in bar the spa jacuzzi :lol:

Ahhh ok, I did think it strange, but because we were total novices, we adhered to what we were told. I rang one dealer asking about a caravan we fancied and he asked us what our car was, he said the computer calculations say it’s too heavy and his actual words were, “it’s above your limit” and...

Oh ok.....because I’ve only been towing for 10 months, I’ve only ever gone by what I’ve been told or advised is right. The reason the caravan was downplated was because the dealer said he could not sell us a Caravan who’s MTPLM exceeded our car tow limit. So I read in the small print that when...

Thank you ProfJohnL for that information, I will try and calculate any other tow cars we have in mind following that advice. I agree that speed limits are definitely that....limits...and not the norm, especially if weather or road conditions don't allow, only wish everyone stuck to that, whilst...

Hi We’re tentatively looking at different tow cars as we need to change my husband’s motorbility car later in the year. When it comes to working out the compatibility of the tow car with my Caravan it gets very confusing. I found a X1 220d xdrive 175bhp with towing capacity of 2000kg but...

Thank you...I am making a note in my caravanning info book, of all suggestions :)

Thank you, I definitely want to tour Scotland, whether it is this year or next. I will check out the two sites you mentioned too. Thank you again ;) :)

I couldn’t get onto the ACSI website, but yes, I came up with link to both CCC and CMC and it says about joining through the and the card will have both ACSI logo and the club logo of the one you purchase it through :huh:

Thank you Alexandria, it is because of his vlogs I wanted to go haha :lol: I agree, they are inspiring and I just love Dougal. Mr Ditton makes it look so easy too lol .

Just a quick question, just looking online for the ACSI scheme, there is a web site ACSI.EU which doesn’t want to load :( but also I noticed the camping and Caravan club is advertising it for £12.99 for the guide, (up to 50% off site fees in low season) would that be the same one? :huh: :)

Thank you for your reply....I suppose I just need to gain some more confidence :unsure: I think if my husband was fully mobile I wouldn’t be so hesitant in just travelling with a ‘let’s wing it’ attitude, but because I feel responsible for both our welfare’s I tend to be a bit cautious...

:ohmy: :ohmy: :ohmy: that sounds like my worst nightmare, thank you for the warning ;) We have decided not to go to Scotland this year as the times we can go does not coincide with the ‘midgless’ time :lol: So we have redirected our thoughts to Brittany. But thank you as this will be...
