Yes, have fun Rangie! :y :y

Always liked staying in a caravan, but neither my husband or I ever towed one.  We often rented a site large site caravan for our holidays when the kids were young.

That may have been due to the fact that in my business travels driving a lot on the M4, M5 and M6 in especially the Summer months, I used to see so many "vans" on their sides, with towing vehicle still attached, after the driver had lost control due to a) poor driving b) strong cross winds or c) pure stupidly of not having the right tow vehicle vs the weight of the caravan! ::) >:D >:D >:D  Having said that I once witnessed a very large caravan on it's side, blocking all 3 lanes of the M6, with the towing lorry, no less right over the crash barrier! :o :o :o

Still, it seems Rangie you are well experienced in enjoying the caravan experience, so best of luck to you!

Always leave plenty of a gap for braking as you have two extra tons pushing you on and stick to the 60 mph limit, I see idiots belting past me at 70-80 mph & the caravan is bouncing from side to side , they haven't a chance in hell of pulling up in a straight line if the need arises.

£2800 to you, if you want a bit of top down summer fun. Im sure all the young Lincolnshire chicks will be very impressed.  :y :D

Mechanically its pretty good, but cosmetically (particularly the bumpers) scruffy. And a paltry 217bhp.

It's going to be a nationwide tour beginning from May, so if you see a silver RRS towing an Elddis Chatsworth  be sure to give me a wave as you speed past..🚗🚗🚗
