Thanks Dazzer, really appreciate the advice, however the van is now out of warrenty, and I will be relying on such information and feedback from fellow caravaners. what I dont understand is why Baileys allowed this apparent design fault to continue,
It should still be under the 6 yr body integrity warranty if it has been serviced in line with the Bailey requirements. I am not sure if this will extend to this problem as it may only cover actual ingress / delamination (but this may have led, or lead to, some slight damp so worth checking) but you coud speak with Bailey and see what they say?

OK. This is a GOOD dealer. They may not have fixed the faults first time, but they havent walked away from them. It;s time for you to name and praise - so who are they?
Damp will always be an issue with softwood framed caravans, but Lunar have a reputation all of its own. Belgian engineering at it's best I guess.
I bought German for mine, Hymer Eriba have a Pual system that stops damp dead. 6 years old and as clean and fresh as the day it was bought inside. Luvverly vans.
