My local dealer is agent for Maypole caravan covers but they were unable to say what size should fit a 2010 Lexon SE model which has a body length of 21ft (excluding A-frame). Should I go for a 19-21ft, or 21-23ft model. They say they can't exchange it if the box is opened. I have read other agents saying go for the "next size-up" if your van is "borderline" between sizes. A 19-21ft could be just right OR too tight and too small while the larger size must leave two feet of floppy material to lose that could catch the wind. But has anyone actual experience of fitting a Maypole cover to a Lunar Lexon 2010 and what size and how would you rate this make of cover?

Thanks for all the links Michael as they appear much better prices than around these parts. Still hoping that someone out there has successfully fitted a Maypole or similar GREEN cover to a Lexon with a 21ft body-length. Do I go 19-21ft or 21-23ft? Fingers crossed someone knows. Dealers don't want to accept a cover that has been opened and possibly damaged as it would involve laying it out on the showroom floor to check it. Even more reason then for the trade being able to advise more accurately.(eg.like when they advise customers to use a length of string around the awning channel,ground to ground, when measuring for an exact awning length.)
