Hi can anyone help ?

Does anyone know the unladen weight for our Avondale Leda cheviot 5 berth  and what sort of car would be best at towing.My husband is thinking of a Vauxhall omega 2 litre diesel.

Any help advise would be gratefully received.

thank you

Julia

Hi Julia,

You can try ringing Avondale Coachcraft 01827 715231 and see if they can help. We have a 1987 Avondale Perle Argos, which we bought with no handbooks, i rang them up expecting to be laughed off the phone asking about a 20 year old 'van but the lady was very helpful, she was able to tell me unladen & max weights, length & width.

I had a Leda Cheviot a few years ago. It was a Four berth - and damp cut it down to three - and it weighed (i think ) 1000 kgs max weight. I towed it with a 2.2 Frontera most of the time with no problems whatever.
