Awning, advice please

[Bigfoot]

we have a 2008 Swift Challenger 540. The awning A/A measurement as quoted is 987 cm.

We are looking at purchasing a Ventura Awning, the brochure gives measurements for the 975cm awning between 961-985 cm and for the 1000cm awning between 986-1010. Being right on the edge do we go for the (slightly cheaper) 975 or the 1000 ?

Hi Bigfoot

I use a Pyramid Corsican size 1000 on conqueror 530 which has the same quoted awning rail size as yours. The fit is fine and I had tried the size down from this but had there been any slope away from the caravan it would have been too small.

As a ps have you tried an NR as I have always found them to be a really good fit with Swifts. I know they don't look the most exciting in the world but have found them to be really good quality, far better than the one I have now.

( I only took it cause it was free )
