HI

WE just bought the above caravan from a local dealer, very excited we pick it up on fri and use it that weekend as already had a pitch booked for our tent.

Dealer were very helpful getting it ready for fri as we had a pitch booked.

Its our 1st caravan so extremly excited, my wife is fairly nervous of towing but sure if we take it steady we will be ok, I have towed our trailer many times.

Good luck Rob ..... I'm hoping to make the transition to a caravan next year and imagine to be a bit nervous on my first tow .... I'm sure all will go well for you mate.

hi

got back yesterday, it towed well just followed the car, we took it steady.

we too hated the packing up of the tent so went for the caravan and loved it was fantastic.

the water pump packed up but one call to the dealer and out they came to fix it, so great service.
