We are looking at the Buccaneer Caravel as a replacement for our Fleetwood Heritage - does anyone know of any problems, issues or gripes with them?

Thanks

Trish

what year is it I have a 1990 caravel and have no problems with it apart from some damp when i bought it. I repaired the damp and it is now dry and sound tows well. would like the new one but at £22.000 its out of my range.

Thanks All

Al - you clearly come from the same school of humour as my OH!

Bob - sorry to possibly upset you - but it would be a new or very nearly new one! - We are making a claim on our new-for-old insurance cover.

I have to say I have mixed emotions on it though - I absolutly love our 2008 Fleetwood Heritage and we'd only decided the weekend before it was damaged (by electrocution!) that there was nothing at the NEC that warranted changing it!

Trish
