We've been caravan owners for just one year and our Avondale Carlton was stolen last night.
Could I ask you all to keep a look out if the following comes up for sale?
Avondale Carlton (special edition Dart from 2008),5 berth, cream colour van with chocolate brown upholstery. CRIS SGAS000AV80002450
New Bilton, near the cement works.....I'd make sure yours is very secure because the more we look at it, ours was definitely planned & targeted.I pray it's just a one off & no-one else loses theirs :(
They've come through the back of the property, broken 2 gates, come across 2 fields, moved 5 horses into one paddock, dragged it backwards with the hitchlock & wheel lock still on it as it was parked tow end against a wall and taken every piece of evidence with them.
Planned to the nth degree.
Perijules it seems like they were determined to have it, I definitely would not want it back after all that who knows what damage they have done, take the insurance payout and replace with another, I know you probably won't get the same model but there are some nice vans around

Sorry about your loss, some years ago I was working late in a factory late on a Sunday to have everything ready for a 8 oclock start Monday morning.
A number of people cut lock on school gate laid planks across playing field, cut hole in back wire fence of factory disconnected 10 ton lift stacker truck in charging bay, drove to hole in fence across planks out school gate loaded on waggon and drove off unseen from housing estate opposite school, both security and myself did not hear a thing, even lifted planks and took with them but left indentations in grass from hole in fence. If they want it they will get it.
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.
