We stayed at a site in North Wales a few months ago and I woke around 7am to hear a crash in the awning. I found both the kids skateboards had falled and someone had tried to reach under the awning to take them. At

We have a 1992 Lunar Sunbeam that doesnt have the blinds or flyscreens fitted. As getting the curtains to stay closed is a bit of a pain we wondered what the costs would be to get blinds fitted into the van, if its even possible? Any advice? Jane x

Like Deborah we were also looking for a first van on a budget. We also looked at plenty of damp, dingy, expensive old vans a lot of which were on dealers forecourts! In the end we bought a 1992 Lunar Sunbeam (another of the planets range like Deborah's Venus). Its a lightweight van which...

Agree with Karen completely. However, we were looking for a van we could tow with out PT Cruiser which has a ridiculously low tow weight. We found that some of the late 80's early 90's Lunars were very lightweight. We finished up with a sunbeam which was 770 I believe. Jane x

I laughed till I cried. I was laughing so loudly my husband came in from the garden to see what all the fuss was over. In all my years of watching TV that had to be the funniest thing I have ever seen. The sight of the van tipping back and them all ending up sitting on hammonds knee on the...

My gorgeous boys are a 5 year old "vintage" West Highland white terrier, a "bob" model. And a somewhat newer, rather larger 3 year old scottish terrier of the "Jack" variety!! The Jack tends to consume more fuel than the Bob so is rather large around the rear end! Both models are rather prone...

Thanks all! Some nice suggestions there. As it happens fate wasnt on our side this weekend.....while sorting out a few things on thursday night I found the water heater was leaking. Not a big problem until we discovered we couldnt get the water pump working either..... Anyway, we have now...

OOh just to say! There are 2 Janes! LOl, better change my name :)

Well, as you know we bought the written off sunbeam for a bargain price. Its a dream to tow. After spending 2 weeks cleaning it and looking around it we find we have a van that appears to have been little used. Upholstery is gleaming and 'plump'. Everything works and best of all its a solid...

As some of you know we only bought our van 3 weeks ago. We have steadily cleaned and filled it and we were thinking of taking one trip before winter. We quite fancy prestatyn, being from Stoke its a fairly close destination with lots to do for the kids. I looked at the Haven park there but...
