I have just purchased a 2 berth 1996 Avondale mayfly caravan, seem to be struggling a bit to find an awning to fit, has anyone got a mayfly that could advise me on which one i should go for.

Isabella say the A measurement is 787cm and they recommend an 800cm awning.

Bill

For a licence dated 1997 or later you must add together the plated max weight of the caravan and trailer, if the total is 3500 or less you can tow it. You may even tow a caravan with a MAM greater than the cars unladen mass the restriction was removed in 2013

Jule no the awning measurement is ground to ground so the height is already part of it.
