Hi guys, was watching an item other week on e-bay called a La Boheme folding camper. I think im in love. Can anyone tell me about them good /bad etc. cant have caravan as no where to store it. This seems perfect. Do they still make them? how much can you pick one up for ? are there other makes etc etc. Any info greatly appreciated. thankx blueted.
Hi thanks for your reply. I have been doing just that, was just hoping for some inside information about folding caravans. you know the sort of things , such as are they prone to leaks, anything usual that drops off, generally what to look for . Am totally new to this you see. Bought a tent this year, do like it but dont think i can do much more than a weekend break in one . ;) xx blueted
We're relatively new to the folding caravan thing, we only bought 'Ethelbert' in July this year. He's about 30 years old but fantastic! We've done a bit of updating but the body and fitments were sound - I think that's what you have to look for, if you have a decent chassis, walls, roof and cupboards it's easy to change curtains, flooring and seat covers etc. We're on our way to painting the outside now (1/3 done!) have a look here very new but some pics and bits on there.
Oh thats lovely thanku for sharing your photos with me. He is a handsome chappie isn't he. Some of them are so butt ugly. But yours looks like a caravan. roughly without sounding nosey was he ? and secondly did the awning come with him ? ;) x
Are there any differences between the Esterel and La Boheme? For some reasons it seems to me that this is the same thing and differ only in their coloring...
ok a search for boheme only brings up 3 posts on the entire forum. Any more info on these available? I'm looking to buy one which was advertised as a trailer tent although searching the net they only made folding campers/caravans. For the grand sum of £50 I figured so long as it tows ok its worth a go.
Received pics today and decided to stick with the frame tent as it offers more enclosed space. For anyone interested this is on gumtree in Ely for £50 and definately a bargain, just not for me.
Amazing family weekend with old steam engines, classic car displays, market stalls, and full catering and bar. And camping on site - Save £25 by booking in advance.
