We have decided after many years of camping then progressing to a folding camper for last 5 yrs its now time for a caravan! We are looking to purchase a lunar Lexion se van and I would like to buy an awning for it I have seen an isabella ambassador 2500 825 cm awning for sale but have no idea if it would fit. Anybody got any idea/advice please.

It may help if you put in your location, as someone may be able to point you in the direction of a helpful local dealer for advice.

This is the principal of how to check what awning size you need if you don't have a handbook for the caravan. if you do have a handbook it should tell you in there.

If you are looking for a brand new awning then why not consider one with a massive 40% discount from Dorema's factory clearance which also comes with a 12 month guarantee. Check out their prices below.

Dorema Factory Clearance.

Also worth looking at is their home page with various awning models and accessories.

If you are looking for a second hand one, try Preloved as well as Ebay. Also look on the ads on here. I bought a lovely 975 Isabella on here recently at a good price (Thanks Jenny!!)

I know we shouldn't use message forums to sell things....but! I have my in-laws isabella capri 1000 advertised on here. You sometimes see people on site cleaning everything to perfection before they put it away, thats my mother in law!! There hasn't been any response to the advert so it might be worth making them an offer.
