Drive-away awnings

[cflatters]

I am just about to sign a deal on my first motorhome - a 2013 plate Swift Escape 686

Had a great weekend trial with the van and decided to bite the bullet, it does have a Fiama F45S wind-out canopy, but clearly that's not a drive-away option....... Many of the awnings listed appear to be suitable for vans up to around 2.4m (8')

Looking for advice on a drive-away awning options for this unit ..... anyone out there with some experience of this ??

Now the owner of an Escape 686 ..... Very happy with my purchase today !

Congratulations Colin - now you're an actual motorhomer!

Congratulations!

I've also moved this topic into the brand new 'Motorhome accessories' part of the forum which, I hope, will help people find it more easily.

Have you tried inflatable awnings yet? Check out our new Vango Attar 380 Tall drive-away awning review to see how easy they are to put up.

My final choice was torn between the Vango Kela Tall and the Oxygen Movelite Duo XL.

Finally opted for the Movelite based on aesthetics, ie the wife said "want that one".... So thats done and dusted and on order !

In fairness the Vango Kela seemed slightly better value though, a v nice awning too !
