Thanks for the replies guys,

Have looked at both the Kip and the Trigano - both great caravans but I think my heart has been won by the Eriba.  17  Only problem is that hubbie doesn't want to spend that sort of money.  17  He would rather buy a new Freedom Microlite - great caravan but not an Eriba.

Oh well, I had better stop spending money and start saving hard - I will have to stop looking at UK Campsites for all the great buys!!

Many thanks for all your help.

Julie

The Eriba Puck will go in a garage, and there are a couple of other Eriba models which will be a little bigger and might be good for under a porch. Theyn are lovely vans and quite sought after.

I also like the look of the T at b vans. These are a larger version of a camping pod, and quite amazing what they have managed to fit inside for a low budget modest size unit. Have a look at them on YouTube, where I happened to see one reviewed the other day.

When I posted before I meant to also mention the Going Cockpit a Portuguese made van that is available from Red Lion Caravans in Lancashire (they are the only UK dealer). They have been coming into the country in dribs and drabs over the years so you might be lucky in finding a secondhand one, but the main option would have to be a new one. Red Lion have a Practical Caravan video review of it on their Home page and a pdf brochure here
