We have a Pennine Fiesta 2+2 (the model with the loo) which we have used a few times and still getting used to packing and unpacking it. Looking at other Fiesta's, the table sits on its edge against the side with clips holding it in place but ours does not have this so the table sits flat on the floor when packed up. It is a bit of a pain as it would be better on its side to make storing the loo door easier. Does anyone think i could fit some brackets and modify it.

Hi
We have a 2012 version of the same camper. These are the brackets that our table sits in near to the floor

We also have a swivel mount that holds the table in place vertical, mounted off the floor, but I am not sure where you can get these from

Thank you Irvine5. We have seen these mounts in some campers but it seems that in later models they have stopped doing it. We dont know why - sort of assumed that the bed hits the table if stored vertically ? We have spoken to a few dealers and they dont know either. The only way to tell is to try i suppose if it ever stops raining ........

Looks like the catches are known as turnbuttons, something like this may do the job

I have Q2+2 and when we pack up I lay the table and loo door wrapped in bubble packing on top of the reverse side of the folded bed and the put the transit cover over the top.
The table brackets are ok for really just storing the table, but the table moves when your towing.
I have recently had some waterproof bags made to put both items in, so they do not get wet on pack up day. Regards

That makes sense Andyfta. Never thought of that. Do you keep your awning stored on top too or is that now on the floor inside ?

I store everything on top awning, poles and carpet. I lay the door in the middle, the table on the lefthand side (Facing Entrance Door) and the awning, poles etc on the right. On the inside put the aqua roll and waste and chairs on the floor. Regards
