Looks like a 965cm awning maybe to big. (The link you provided doesn't give details on Bradcot sizing). I have however, just found a link on the Bradcot site, they recommend a 945cm awning, which maybe sounds too short?
Found this post on here, (Search), that suggests a Bradcot awning measuring 960cm will "cater for anything from 946 to 975cm which then gives you a bit in hand if ever you pitch on a sloping site, which no doubt you will sooner or later."
The one I'm looking at is 965cm though, not 960cm
Come on seasoned caravanners, please give me some advice!
I have a Bailey 550/6 and when i wanted to purchase an awning i rang the local dealers who all gave me the awning size and i picked up a bargain from lowdhams because they take all the awnings out of the vans they take in part x and sell them on. So just find out if any dealers have the size you want and make em an offer! go low aswell cus it's money for old rope to them.
I'll take a look at Lowdhams, thanks for the heads up. I got a great price on a second hand porch awning from Glossop Caravans...
Unfortunately, the fleabay awning turned out to be a 940cm awning, which is too small for the Ranger... I'll keep watching ebay and scouring dealers...
I've recently got myself a third hand Isabella Capri Lux 950cm from Fleabay... But I've not had chance to pitch it yet... Hopefully next weekend... I'll let you know when it's pitched, hopefully take some photos and add them onto here. :-)
We have the 500/5 ranger 2003 and its a size 12 on the dorema site.double check before you buy because we unknowingly got one slightly too large and after 4 of us could not get it to fit we got the correct one.the one we got was too big.i would trust isabella.
------------- the only silly question is the one you do not ask.
thanks for that,its my worry that a size 12 is to small and a size 13 to large ! as im not able to buy new(after splashing out on the carvan) im limited to ebay etc,theres loads of course but the option to try first is a bit limited
im sure if you emailed dorema and said which caravan you had they will help.i did one time and they were good.
ignore my previous statement because our is a 928 cm
isabella says its 950 cm on yours
dorema says a 925 - 950 is size 12
not much help yours is at the top end.
