Hi all, I’m looking to replace our 4 berth Elddis with a larger used 6 berth, and l quite like the layout of the older 576 and 636 models. The reason for this is the side dinette seat base width can be extended to fit 4 people around the table if the weather is lousy.
However having a read on this site (and others) it appears the 2012 models onward are prone to splitting front and rear panels which is putting me off.
The questions I have are;
1. Did Erwin Hymer ever correct this issue during the manufacturing process for later production models?
2. Does the same problem affect the newer 8ft wide models?
3. Even if caps have been fitted, how likely is it the frame is compromised by water ingress?
3. Are there any other manufacturers which have a caravan with a side dinette large enough for 4 and 2 fixed rear bunks? I’m quite happy to make up the front seating as a large double bed.
Any help is very much appreciated!
