make sure you take out insurance before you collect it.also you need to have 2 'approved 'security devices fitted to it to be covered so make sure you get a good hitch lock and wheel clamp.you can pick them up  2nd hand off ebay or bargain pages etc.

we also use a couple of leg locks-these little gems are only about £20 each to buy and the thieves have a devil of a job to get them off.they lock your caravan corner steadies (up or down---down being best).there is a small 'key' you have to use when the lock is not fitted  in order to wind up the legs.it is a very slight inconvenience but well worth it.also put them on the front!!!that way if you stop on route while towing you can easily wind down the back steadies and jockey wheel if you want to enter the caravan for a snack etc.

well done on your purchase enjoy it !!!

Sold folding camper and have now got a 2002 Coachman Amara 500/5 which is a 5 berth and very nice it is too.

Yeah, done the same type of "just looking" ourselves in the past! And I once heard of someone who called in to a Dealer to buy an electric kettle, and left with a £50K motorhome!

Sorry, but the most expensive phrase has to be.. "I Do"

Best of luck, that "Just a Look" was exactly how we got hooked. It has been the best thing for both of us. Hope you have a good time in it too.

Your insurers will ask for added security if they require it. We go over the top of their reqirements with ours but, having had one van taken, we want to keep this one.

Congratulations, on your just going for a look. Have loads of fun.

We have a hitch lock, wheel lock and two steady locks on ours. None of which take long to fit but would hopefully be enough to deter anyone from having a go at nicking it.
