Hi all, Just sent service details and photos of cracks in the front panel of my 2005 ARGENTE to Avondale for their perusal.Initially they said that the panels are only covered under warranty for 12mths, but are now (hopefully) going to look into the matter!  Will keep posting updates so all you Avondale owners can follow the progress.........

Traded in a PAGEANT MOSELLE for the AVONDALE cos erindors decided she wanted double dinette, which, I hate to admit, is better.Only problems with the BAILEY were excess sealant around the joints and a broken resistance weld on the hob pan support(which was replaced, no quibble by the hob maker)
After several e-mails to Avondale I then quoted 'sale of goods act' etc.seems to have woken the after sales up....
Keeping fingers crossed that they do the 'honest' thing and effect repairs to my 3yr old van(£14.5k new)!!!!!!!!
BOOM,BOOM......

Hi,
Must have viewed just about all the posts in forums which gave views and comments on these cracks, so decided to persue the issue.
