This time I set the awing up-40 mins inc table etc inside-set up it sets perfectly and looks new again-straight, no sags. 4⁸⁸ What kept you?? ;)

It's only cosmetic .

Looks like bird poo damage

Ground to ground measurement is for a full awning.

Keep your first trip local. That way not so far to come back for the stuff you've forgotten. Also you'll know the locale for anything you need to buy.

I think next year will be a buyers market for used vans.

We tried a Bradcot after the disastrous Kampa. The door fouled the airbeam too when the awning was in the correct position so we abandoned it and went back to poles

Position your trolley jack where the axles attach to the chassis. I can usually get to the front axle ok (without the mover) but the rear is impossible as the movers are in the way. You may not be able to as you have movers fore and aft. Possibly slide a bottle jack between the wheels??

The amount of strain a 4wd mover appears to put onto the suspension and running gear was the reason we went for 2WD on our TA Swift. It's only used for 'fine tuning' and levelling up once the van has been reversed to where I want it and for nosing it into its parking place at storage.

Er Mercedes?, don't think so......

Ours looked brand new too when we got rid of the damn thing as it had only been out 3 times which was quite enough thank you, back to our Isabellas!

We used cheaper top and bottom tank additives last year instead of the Thetford chemicals. First time ever we've had black bits in the top tank. Ditched it and bought some more Thetford.

I'm also with Thingy, inside, pegged under the floor covering.

The car has to be modified so that the towed vehicle's brakes operate when the towing vehicle brakes. A frames are not illegal to use in France or Spain but the law states that it is illegal for one vehicle to tow another except in an emergency and never on a motorway. Personally if I had to tow...

Seem to remember the Bailey with the car on top was a marketing idea as previously stated. If you spread thd load over as big an area as possible, should be OK. Never had the need to climb on the roof, a long handled car was brush suffices.
