Hi
I'm looking for an awning for a conway tardis ( green) if anyone has one for sale or knows where I can get one ( have been looking on web for a while)
Or can anyone tell me if any other type of awning can be used?

Thanks, I'm new to this.

Any type of awning can be used as you have a normal awning rail on the hardtop.  You just need to measure from the ground to ground through the awning rail and that will give you the size (as in the link below)

http://www.bowenawnings.co.uk/awnings/measure-awning.html

Then look on second hand sites for one that is the same size.  You can also use a porch awning for weekends, which is much quicker to put up.

Oh, and welcome to UKCS!

I have a Bonair which is also a hard top with an awning rail. I bought one of these last month:

http://www.a2zcamping.co.uk/factory-second-awnings/FS1852.html

from this company and it is lovely and roomy. They were quick to deliver and it is quite easy to put up. It fits mine perfectly. I think they do it in green too.
Hope it helps!!
P.s. dont know if link worked bit its a Sunncamp Paramount 260 large porch awning.

Thanks for the info guys, ill look into both of your suggestions.

I'm in the middle of cleaning up the tardis at the moment, in the hope it looks a bit more presentable ( being an older model)
But I'm determined to use it for holidays for me and my son and can't wait to get going.

I'm pretty sure ill be back on with loads more questions like.... Nobody told me about reversing OMG Lol

Oh and thanks for the welcome Ronni :-)
