Measure the waste pipe outlet with a tape measure.(usually 1/2 or 1" diameter)

Tyres - get 8 ply for caravan, no matter which size tyre/rim you get (4 ply are ok for cars but not for caravans)

Gas - blue butane bottles are 7kg, red propane are 6 kg. I use 2 propane bottles cos they dont freeze up in the Winter. (they are quite expensive though)
