we have an adria adora isonzo,bought new feb 2014.no problems or issues with it. absolutely brilliant caravan that tows fantastic despite its size. top road tourers dundee are great to deal with.
We are very happy with our caravan, had it for a year now and apart from some minor faults on delivery everything has been trouble free for the year. Waiting to get it in for it's first service to ensure no underlying issues or the dreaded damp. We had a new Eldis 540 prior to this van and it was a case of "what's going to break next" awful van and had problems on every trip.

We have our little Freedom, it's a 1989 model and it does all we need.
It has all we want in the way bits and pieces ie cooker fridge and toilet, so with the hellishly expensive awning we have all the room we need.
It's easy to tow and move about which at our age as the most important thing (our driveway is a bu**er) so we can keep it at home.
Ok so it does need a few things doing on it but who cares I can do them over winter but for now it'll do us just fine.
And of course we know there is very little chance it will leak like a lot of others.
So all in all we are very happy with it.
We had a freedom microlite LE for 8 years and loved it. I really miss the pop up roof where you can see what's going on outside. It wouldn't be any good for France and Spain though so it had to go. Our Elddis motorhome is great, we're going to sunny Spain in September 🌞
It's Swift Challenger Sport 524 (no fixed bed, side dinette) bought new in July 2014. Before this we spent 15 years camping with a tent.
We've had numerous weekends away, including through the winter, but have recently returned from three weeks touring in Somerset and Devon which we hugely enjoyed. Throughout all this the caravan has been faultless and has repelled all weather.
Up to now both the selling dealer and our local dealer have given no problems and the first service last month went very well.
We'll be hanging on to this for a while.
------------- Camping Gear expands so as to fill the space available for its transportation.
Abbey Expression 550/6 I must say very pleased with it had a year enjoying the feeling of space is great. Bought from Michael Jordan caravans who I have been impressed with, had a few things come up at service and they put things straight in the post under warranty no arguments.
We love our Bailey Series 7 Burgundy we bought new in 2009, as last year of conventional builds we got most of the Senator's features including extra width for free. Just love the layout, fixed double bed is great and living area has so much open space available.
Absolutely trouble free apart from a Polyplastic central window that was upgraded as it rubbed in centre when towing in headwind.
Like alan 29, could easily loose shower as use we on-site facilities.

Adria Altea Sportline 532 UP (based on 2014 Altea Trent) We love it. We like the island fixed bed. It is easy to tow although we have had motor mover, and gas bbq point added. We love it.
Problems? Very few. It had been a demonstrator and a couple of items had been "borrowed" for other vans, but these were replaced prior to delivery. One though was the bathroom tap, which did leak on first use, but Venture Caravans Hitchin were great. This leak occurred when we were on way to NEC show in Feb. Spoke to our salesman at the show and he told us to pop in to Hitchin on our way home, it was sorted right away.

Love the layout and the extra length from the twin axle chassis. The large fridge is a god send!
Fixed bed for us and long lounge beds our 2 children use.
Whale heating and water system is fantastic and can be timer controlled like your home heating. We like that we can leave the heating set overnight at 14 and then increase to 20 at wake up time.
Haven't had any issues at all, just been serviced and all good.
The only thing I have changed the plug in pump. It came with the premium pump but I've changed it to the high flow. Makes the shower so much better.
Dealer is Cosford Caravans who are also superb. Nothing too much trouble and reasonably priced.
Great idea by the way. I would much rather read how happy owners are with their vans than from the minority of moaners who fill this forum with their doom and gloom.
We have owned a Gobur Carousel 12/2T folding caravan for over two years which has been brilliant for our needs with no problems at all.
Although it's a 1995 model it was refurbished at the Gobur works in August 2012 and everything has worked perfectly which says a lot for their design and build quality.
Great to hear positive comments from owners of various makes/models
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.
