For some reason the ebay link does not appear!!!! You will find the anti theft device on ebay under the title Hyundai Spare Wheel Protector - cost £50.

I have one of these fitted on my 2008 Santa fe. They are ok if you have a cable operated mechanism for the spare wheel and certainly cheaper than the main Hyundai dealers...

If that was the case why do we still measure road distance in miles? Ian

Hi, As a former motorhomer welcome back to caravanning. Ian

Hi all, I went to this site during the month of December. The site only has one access/departure road which is barrier controlled and the reception is not manned 24 hrs. If you have a mover getting in/out will not be a problem. If my memory serves me correctly it is hardstanding with grass...

Hi, I stopped at this campsite on my way to Spain in the motorhome. As an overnight stop it is fine however the pitches are small with one or two suitable to pitch a caravan and awning (providing they are empty.) Now I have changed to a caravan I would not use it. Ian

Went into Aldi at Pocklington last night and bought one for £150! Ian

Obviously trashed the caravan!!! Would like to know the outcome. I have two cats and have thought about taking them with me on holiday. Any other caravanners had experiences taking their cats with them. i.e. do you keep them confined to the caravan/awning or let them roam freely. Ian

Bump! I would like to know as well, same thing is happening to one of my locks. Ian

Thank you for the info which is greatly appreciated. I am a bit apprehensive to park up on a motorway aire. Are there any campsites near Calais that are open all year? Ian

Planning to take the caravan to Spain in December of this year and going down the west coast of France. Has any caravanner a preferred route with campsites opened all year? Ian

I stayed at this campsite last year. As the advertidement states the site is not suitable for young children because there are no amenities in the immediate vicinity. It is a large open area but the owner tries to dictate where and how you should pitch your caravan. It is quiet,pleasant and...

I took my dog to France last year. We travelled on the Portsmouth/Cherbourg rote (5hours). The dog had to stay in the car and I was allowed one visit during the crossing to see him (dog was asleep when I visited). The French vets are very helpful and they will vaccinate the dog against the...
