The caravan is a Compass Omega 490/4 in Sheppey.

This morning I drove into mums driveway and as I glanced sideways at the caravan it looked odd. Something did not look right about the door. I got out of the car, walked over to the van and saw the bottom half was missing. I was confussed as how this could have happened the door was secured shut...

Has anyone ever replaced these pads to their awning. One of mine has ripped off and the other is looking deteriorated. They seem to thick to sew on but would gluing make a strong enough bond. Any advice?

I have booked out first excursion of the year to the Marlie site, New Romney. Its still in Kent where I live, not to far away. I booked it for the end of March so hopefully wont be too cold. Already started to prepare the caravan and awning as a few faults need to be sorted.

I have been advised that it is not worth the queue for the Book of Kells which is more of a wait for a page as it is just open on one page. It also costs too much to see it.

Then £25 and a V62? is needed. The V5 is not proof of ownership but I would send off forms before departure.

Not grumpy at all. You seemed rather placid given the circumstances.

Do you have the V5c/2 new keeper slip?

Sites already charge too much for electricity supply.

The L200 did pull the caravan fine but it was like pulling a trailer with full load. I was expecting the L200 to be able to throw it around like a child's rag doll. Maybe I need to remove that EGR. I did book on line at first then had to rebook for the following month when the l200 broke down...

I thought the L200 would drag the caravan much easier than it did. Uphill the L200 seemed under powered. The expected hour and half journey became two hours so arrived at the Hastings Touring Park at 1900. The reception was apallingly dissorganized as my booking had not been entered on their...

What about reefer units. How are there fridge units powered. Sure I saw red diesel at the Silwood HGV pumps Thurrock.

The OP stated fueling with HGV. I have seen red diesel pumps in Calais but maybe that was just at HGV fuel station only.

If you mistakenly fill your vehicle with red you can loose your vehicle.
