You'll get a cracker for that - you're not far off brand new money there.  Have a look at eBay for starters.  Have you considered a folding camper?  No pegging, so quicker to set up, & you can camp without the awning up for weekends as the kitchen is indoors.  Try these.

i think i'd prefer a big tent but someone wants a bit of luxury....this also means i have a campingaz grill and some other bits which i will have to sell!!

thanks, Leon

oh I forgot to ask, do i need to worry about the wind like i do choosing a site with a tent? (providing I don't go to shell island!)

Wind can be an issue, but as with a rigid frame tent (which is what they are, just on a trailer) the wind won't move them as much as say a tunnel or dome tent.  We have camped in ours in really strong winds on very exposed sites.  They do rattle a bit & I won't say it was a peaceful night, but our camper was still there in the morning.  The tent campers & caravan awnings could not all make that claim.

Just got back from jr leisure in radcliffe, the OH fell in love with a nearly new crusader 600, (how the hell do those toilets fold down?), shame we don't have the other £5500 to buy it!!

Anyone know of a bank with a weak door?

P.S I don't like the new colour cruiser/crusader in that washed out blue....
