Hi Billy, welcome to the Practical Caravan forum.
It's a shame that you appear to have been conned by the seller of your caravan, what a pity that you didn't join us before parting with your money! We could have advised you on how to verify the year of manufacture of the caravan and things to look out for such as damp and how to detect it etc.
If the caravan was advertised as being a 1993 model and this turned out to be a falsehood you could have asked for your money back but because you have carried our repair work on the caravan you have accepted it.
Never mind, enjoy using your caravan and if there's anything that you want to know just ask.

Hi Bill. welcome to the forum. look forward to your pics. I think I can see your problem though. Thats not a caravan its some sort of tank. I guess it was really dark.
