Hi all , just hoping somebody can give me some advice or info !!

Some friends of mine are looking for a Jaco ( is that the right spelling?? ) hard roof trailer tent , and having a nightmare finding one. My friend has her heart set on one of these , but cant find anywhere to get one. I know nothing about them , other than its got a wind up roof!!!

Would be really grateful if anyone can point me in right direction , especially as i told her someone on here would know something about them - no pressure tho!!#

 Thanks in advance ,

                                           Sam.x

As far as I remember, Conway imported Jayco (I think they were American) before folding campers really took off in this country.  There were 2 models - Tardis and Laser.  I think the Laser was about the size of a Conway Cardinal (or Cruiser) and the Tardis a bit bigger.  Your friends might like to look for a Conway Cardinal as an alternative - same mechanism (wind-up solid roof).  I think there is a Cardinal on E-bay at the moment - there was at the weekend!!

Update on the E-bay front - Jayco-like trailers by Conway were called 'Clubman' after 'Cardinal' - there are two very nice looking units on E-bay at the moment.  The more modern ones (eg - the two on E-bay) have fridge, oven, hot water system and cassette toilet!

Happy camping.
