This is a message to any Adria Altea owners out there. I'm looking at Air Awning, i like the Kampa Air rally 390 but will it fit between the door and the front side window whilst still covering the rear window. Or do i need to go to the next size up?

Any advice would be gratefully received.

Regards

Andrew

That's how I checked mine before I bought a porch awning. I measured 390 cms. from the far side of the door but was too long as it fell half way across the side window so measured 260 cms. and found it fitted just right. I agree it's a simple task to do with any porch awning.

We have an adria adiva and gateway air awning but the awning is not long enough length wise it's fine

We don't mind as we won it in a raffle

Andrew,

We have a Adria Altea 542 DK & we also have a Kampa Rally Air Pro 390.

ITS not a perfect fit. When you allow door to open and click in place the rear will be about 2" over the back of the rear window. We have the storm pole kit (needed in my opinion and should come with an awning of this price) We also have the storm tie down kit as well.

Its my third Kampa Rally Air Pro and love the awnings. IF you leave caravan door so it can open BUT not click home then you can just run rear down back of rear window. The window has not got marked and we have used for many weekends. You wont be able to open the window but again not an issue.

Ideally the 542DK wants a 4m air awning.

Hope this helps.

Andrew

Hi Baddon,

That's a great help. I thought it would be close but just needed confirmation.

Andrew
