Hi
Another new forumite and caravan owner here. Ours is the typical background of half a lifetime of tent camping before a longer trip last June with our two dogs. We had some cold and wet days which always results in mud on our beds as the dogs reckon our mattresses are more comfy than theirs. So began the discussion about getting a small van or similar for such trips. We started talking to people we met on the road trying to work out what we wanted as prior to that trip a caravan, camper, poptop or trailer tent was something 'other' people used and we knew nothing about! Long story short, we set ourselves what turned out to be a completely ridiculous budget and went looking, and more looking. One day we dropped into the caravan place in Bayswater and ended up putting a deposit down on one of the new vans they had on the block.
Soon after we picked up our new toy, a 13.42-1 OB and have since enjoyed a number of trips in it. I found this forum whilst researching various mods and ideas I have planned.
cheers
