I have a Sterling Europa 550 2010 12v System does not work. i' not the most confident with electrics, just wondering if there are any checks i can do myself before calling someone out?

i was sort of thinking on the same line, but as i said i have managed to give the van a very discreet wash, so im thinking most of the grit and sand may have gone. so now using a waterless cleaner before the polish maybe ok?

we used a Royal Armscote 260 air last summer fantastic awning, so easy.

Hi All on the site we are on they dont want you washing your vans, so i have given mine a cheeky quick once over this weekend. Question is anyone used waterless cleaners. also what polishes do you guys use.

thank you all for the advice, it has help so much. will let you all know what i decide on.

THANKS FOR YOUR ADVICE PROFESSOR JOHN, Not really panicking, obviously i need to be sure the car i buy is suitable to tow my caravan or i have defeated object of buying a new (to me) car. After the new year i will be looking again, it looks like the Insignia, estates seem to be better weight...

as i dont yet own the car or have access to it at this time, how do i find the weights, sorry if i sound a dumb, but this is really stressing me out. Ideally, i already own the van a 2010 Swift Europa 550, the van is currently sited. i would like to tow it next year so need a car to pull it...

the car is 140bhp Hatchback (not estate)

help, i feel like giving up, im pulling my hair out, i dont know which way to turn. I just want someone to say yes that car is suitable that caravan, i past my yest in 1980 so licence not an issue.

I have a Swift Europa 550 2010 and am looking at purchasing a Vauxhall Insignia 2.0 CDTI ELITE Hatchback 2014 is this a good match. thanks in advance shakey

Many thanks,

Has the season draws to a close, what are the most impotent we need to do when locking up for the winter? this is my first caravan, so as much info as possible woul;d be highly greatful thanks in advance shakey

what makes of awning do you guys recommend? looking at purchasing a new one as the one that cam with the van is looking a little aged.

thanks guys, i was under the impression they may be a con, but just thought id ask the experts

Hi, What are your thought on Moisture Traps. some people say they work other say they pull moisture into the van. what are your thoughts
