Hi any other Kip caravan owners on here?

I could do with asking someone who owns one a couple of questions regarding mine, which I bought recently but doesn't have a manual!

Thanks, Jax:)

There is a Classic and Retro caravan forum somewhere that has posts on Kip Caravans. Perhaps a Google might help.

Thanks to you both for your help!

I tried leisure vehicles when I was looking for one, I'm not hopeful as they only want to know you if you have loads of ££££ to spend on a new/newish one.

David, I found the retro/classic site but it doesn't seem like anybody's home! LOL!

Tbh Jax, there are very few Kip vans in the UK, how often do you see 'em? I'm afraid 80s Kips aint like 80s Eribas, there aint the backup & the websites to help you. I googled 'kip club' & came up with this Its in Dutch obviously but you can put the web adress into Babelfish or Google translators, Kip translates as 'chicken' btw! Most Dutch speak good English so if you sign up you should get some answers.

You could also email the Kip factory(they will speak English)& see if they know of any sources of spares for 80s vans.

Thanks Art, I emailed the Kip Caravan Club in Holland a few days ago, haven't had a reply yet.

I know there aren't many around here, but they're quirky, different, easy to tow and well laid out for something so small.... just like me! LOL!!
