Caravan out of storage

Joff, you can see your old estate on page 2 


Wife will not be happy when she looks at this as she loved that CD more then she liked her Elite. Now she may get a drive of the 3.2 when I pick it up on Monday but she can drive the disco home so I can have a go first

I seem to remember there's a photo of TB towing a caravan - I wonder where I put it....

Could it be my Avatar??

Think we need a caravan section for pics, do's, dont's and how to's and maybe a link to some of the best site's

Well just sold my 1994 Sterling Eccles Sapphire, and been out and got a slightly newer one.

Now a proud owner of a 2000 Sterling Europa 4 berth, 6" longer than the Sapphire but only 960kg in weight so easier to pull.

Got the caravan for a bargain price of £3700 with awning and ALL required accessories.

It is alot nicer than the last one with more creature comforts.

Will get a few pictures of it attached to the Miggy when we have our first outing first week of August.

Just spent today doing all checks (Gas / electric / Water) and everything working fine.
Gave all the grease point a squirt, just got to check brakes and we are all set.

Here are a few pictures to start with.

Sorry, I thought you had. There seemed to be a while when you hadn't posted & just assumed.     

I'm sure your trip will be cheaper than mine re fuel  :-? I 'only' used 81 gallons

There was .. I wasn't ..

Just been checking fuel prices ... Average Hypermarket prices for GPL seem to be around 69 c / litre which is about 58 p/litre   so cheaper than UK !!!

Working on E1.2 to £1 as long as its less than 76 c/litre we'll be fine... still less than 15p/mile in fuel ..
