If you want trouble free motoring go for a Toyota Landcruiser - older model is Colorado later models LC3,LC4, & LC5. Choose 3.0 D-4D engine Auto gearbox. Colorado was 4 speed auto 25mpg towing 30mpg solo. LC3/4/5 has 5 speed auto 26 mpg towing 31mpg solo. I have owned both models and current...

You can buy a Mini Dish on Ebay for about

I have used my 43cm dish and Sky Box all over England, Scotland and France right down to the Med. No problems. I use a 99p plastic compass and the Sky box tuning. Sky Handset - Services - Scroll down to 4 - then scroll down to 6.

I would recommend this Ring RAC 600. First class. http://www.theultimatefinish.co.uk/ring/rac600-automatic-digital-tyre-inflator.aspx Google it to find cheaper.

Mark I suggest you contact a Dealer or Bailey and ask them what to do. If it is an old van and out of warranty then have a go - nothing to lose.

Hi Andy I have just been through the renewal process. Many Insurers did not cover for Europe. My best qoute was Fortis Insurance Ltd through a Broker - www.insurancechoice.co.uk Tel: 08445577620

Paul just a thought - are you in a new 12 month contract which means you have to have the Skybox connected to a phone line? - At ALL times.

Hi Jo I can't answer your questions as we don't have a dog and don't fish. Why don't you email Andrew who will have all the answers. mail@yorkcaravanpark.com When we spoke to him he said that the lake had been re-stocked with fish, but that is all I know. Happy Christmas

Sue I can recommend this site:- http://www.yorkcaravanpark.com/ We stayed here this year for 2 weeks. The site is newish so hedges are not yet too high, but pitches are huge and are well away from the road - so you sleep well. There is fishing onsite. Facilities are new and spotless. There is a...

The caravan manufacturers are also to blame for incorrectly fitting the Truma regulator too low. They also wrongly fed in the gas pipe to the top of the regulator instead of from the side. Gravity will ensure that the oil in gas does not flow uphill into the regulator if the reg. is also placed...

This year we used an ACSI card for the first time. We were in France for 6 weeks May/June and never paid more than 12 Euros [incl. EHU]. All the sites were excellent apart from one that was waterlogged and full of 'Seasonal vans. We never booked and always chose our own pitch. Many sites often...
