We are looking for a lightweight van as our car's MTPLM is only 1088kg (85% as per caravan club).
We have been looking at private sales as well as dealers but a lot of adverts do not quote the MTPLM, so to make it easier for us to scour the adverts, I was hoping to get a list of the model/make of caravans that come into our catergory. I am only interested in vans up to 5 years old.
The only ones I know of at present are Avondale Dart 380/2, Compass Corona 362, and the Lunar Ariva. I'm sure there must be more, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks Korky
Hmmm, whilst you might find a caravan light enough I think you may struggle on actual power. Running it through whattowcar.com it looks like it might struggle even with a Bailey 500 on it. Did you mean your car is 1088 or that 1088 is the 85% figure?
hi, we run a range of lightweight tourers from caravelair french manufacturer, continental spec, but 4 berth options with a mptl of just 950kg, with are proving very popular with customers with smaller cars. just a thought!
There ya go, that sounds like your solution! Of course, a lot of older vans are lighter. Our Elddis is 850 unladen with a 250 kg payload and is a 1997 model. The more it sings and dances the heavier it is.
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.
