    Hose off Comet tap?

    I can't help with using the new tap but where did you get it or any others parts for these taps? I have them fitted and my dealer is usless.

    Panorama XL Porch Awning

    These awnings look ideal for a cold weather one for us, but there is very little space for the awning on the door side on our caravan. Clearly it can't over lap the fridge vents, but would it cause problems if it overlapped a window? (I know it couldn't be opened but I don't know if this sort of...

    full names

    I put this below http://www.practicalcaravan.com/newforums/fm_messages.asp?FO=5&FM=70269 In effect my understanding is its illegal to have changed how personal information is used with out the agreement of those providing it. I have removed my surname, marking it as withheld, until the change...

    Caravan Jacks

    The advice I have seen from the police (and others) is not to try changing car wheels on motorways or main roads today. The traffic conditions are so bad that they say it is just to unsafe. I kept a look out, after seeing this to, see where I felt I would be happy about changing the car wheel...

    Supermule

    We looked into them when we got our caravan. We were told the chassis makers will not accept them due to the damage they can cause the chassis. Though not as clear cut the caravan maker was in effect saying your on your own if you fit one regards warrantee. I was also unable to get any real...

    Personal Info - IMPORTANT

    I notice many full names are still being listed. I am unclear if this is still the change in policy or not. In case it is I have amended my surname to withheld. As I commented above to change the way personal information is used does breach the data protection act, which requires such a change...

    Dethleffs 520 v Lunar Quasar 615

    We have a Dethleffs and are very pleased with ot. The dealer was a disaster so do some searches on them as well as the caravan. If we get another caravn we would get one but seek out a better dealer (posts being "nasty" about dealers tend to be taken off so I'll not say who, but search out the...

    Personal Info - IMPORTANT

    A number of years ago a High Court ruled its use for non electoral uses was illegal as it meant those who didn't want there information to be used for no election uses could only not be listed and this infringed there Human Rights to the right to vote. The result is the electoral register is no...

    Awning help please

    Can any one give me advice. We have a Detleffs caravan and have a major problem with the awning track. The first time we used the caravan and awning we kept having the awning coming out of the track. The awning piping is so loose in the track you can pull it out (and push it back in) any where...

    Campbells of Preston

    My owne as well. Especially annoying as we were asking that they would talk to us about the problems and reply to communications sent about them. Maybe dealing with problems is the doggy thing! Its interesting how touchy caravan newsgroups/trade are/is compared to many others that openly deal...

    Best Service

    Phantom and Sola-larm have been marvellous in helping trying to sort out an appalling alarm installation on our new caravan where the dealer and installer have been totally useless and did nothing.

    Sealing round alarm siren and Rich Mover cabling?

    Well we have done the work now. It took most of a day. The original work was much worse than it looked. There was an abortive hole down to the axel where they hadn't worked out properly where to put the mover cable hole. There had been no effort to make good this mess up! The hole with the...
