Blessed relief, awning had collapsed but damage is limited to a small scratch (should polish out) to the side of the van and one bent pole :-) On a serious note, the integrated clip in storm straps had disintegrated! the actual clips were still attached to the awning but the webbing was like...

Have 2 of those already, ah well lets go and see what going on... 3 hours drive, hope its not a total disaster :-(

This maybe a bit like shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted! but Where can I get a tie down or storm strap to suit my Wyoming ? I've seen lots in the shops etc but they don't appear to be long enough (an 11mt strap is good for upto 6m awnings according to the packs) but the...

Having just bought our first caravan which we collect on Saturday :-) I was let down today on the promise of loan towcar to take it to site in Cornwall However- a quick trawl of the internet revealed that Mitsubishi rent out vehicles with towbars :-) A quick call has secured a new L200 (with...

As a newbie to the forum who is about to join the rank and file of slow moving traffic ;-) I listen with glee to the doom merchants - and look forward to buying a decent pre loved outfit from someone who is getting out because of the cost! :-p It's all relative, somebody, on another...
