I am looking for a lightweight awning like the suncamp

I currently have a bradcot active which is very roomy with the annex conected,

I want an awning that covers the whole of the side of the van an Abbey stafford not just 3/4 of the van any ideas! as it looks like the suncamp only reaches the front side windows

Don't buy the Bradcot Modus. I bought one at the tail end of last season, There is a major problem with water pooling on the roof which they tried to correct by adding a middle rafter But this has resulted in 2 pools instead of one,

The roof is near enough flat so there is no natural run off for rain water. I have contacted Bradcot by email - no reply !. I bought it from Knowles in Livingston - they said that they had never heard of the problem and had not received anything from Bradcot.

I've just had my van serviced by a local dealer and I asked them to contact Bradcot for a solution. To date they have had no reply.

I am not the only one as I have read on the web that other owners have had refunds - not from Knowles obviously !.

Looks like Bradcot are burying their heads in the sand - so much for buying british !.
