Hi Martin, a big heavy beast, but I imagine it is lovely with the right towing vehicle. Welcome to the forum.

Welcome to tht forum. Lovely caravan, but a pity it cannot be towed by a normal SUV as body length exceeds 8m. I am guessing that you have it permanently sited somewhere to enjoy on weekends.

Hi Martin. This is superb caravan, but I am wondering if you plan to tow and if so with what. One advert for the model I found shows the length as 9.154 metres. This would suggest that the body is over 7 m, and if so it can only be towed with the likes of a Transit van. It will also be very heavy and needs a towing vehicle of substantial weight to control it. If you want it as a seasonal pitch model it will work very well though.
There is plenty of experience on here although you have a very rare model but you will et any help possible if you ask.

Thank you all. The idea was to take it down to Spain but Brexit and COVID put a dent in to that idea.

Unless you have a vehicle with a GVW exceeding 3500kg it would be a very expensive tow. Sadly no SUV in the UK is capable to towing such a caravan.

Thanks for your advice
