Hi everyone!!!!! We are recently becoming the proud owners of a 90s pennine fiesta in blue. And we are so fricking excited!!!! and to be in a better bed etc as i have fibro and i am sick of blow up mattresses.

£400 bargain and in very good shape. but missing original fridge but has a regular mini fridge in it but everything else is fine.
Comes with winter cover as well and i mean inside is so clean and no damp or mold it looks almost new and we are so lucky.

We are new to fold out camping/trailer tents

First question - I want to know if their is anywhere i can be recommended to find a whale pump for it as cheap as possible? or if someone can recommend one that should do the job/fit? - i really dont have a clue lmao

Second question - their is no leisure battery is it best to buy new?

Third question - i would love to hear or see pictures of someone who has revamped their camper for inspo, i am hoping me and my partner can make it a lovely little camping pad and bring it out o the 90's.

Hopefully we can make it look great awesome for our upcoming trip.

Thanks in advance Dom x

Welcome to the Forum.

Pump ebay.

Battery new, as you have no idea how good a condition a second hand one would be.

If you have a look with the search facility you might find revamped campers, have a play with the words when using the search.
eg modified, revamp, FC

When you have a minute can you enter your outfit & location details as this can help other members when advising you of say something in your area.

Thank you for your reply.

Is their particular power I need for it? as it will be use d when we go with no ehu but this will not be all the time. To power charging our phones and tablet/ lamp and maybe a tv if we wish.

Ive managed to find a facebook page that is showing makeovers on trailer tents and campers with some good ideas for the older models.

Thank you for your reply and I have altered my settings.

To do what your'e after you really would be best to be using EHU.
You can get 12v telly's but they are pretty expensive.

Hey Dom! Congratulations!! Hope you have many happy camping trips.

yes!! I refurbed my 2017 Pennine Pathfinder. It was a new model but i dind't like the orange wood. I can never remember how to link photos, but if you search for the topic

Pimp my Camper

(maybe someone cleverer than me can even link the thread here??)

You should be able to find all my photos on there. It was the best thing I ever did. I love it so much more than before.

Enjoy your journey.
Vivien xx

Jut an update. i managed to find a used caravan place and they sell even used parts. they didn't have a used whale pump however shown them a pic of the fitting and she found me the correct one. i still need to get the pipe for the inside though.

my partner has managed to out the gas pipes back together and i sourced an electrolux caravan fridge for £30 and it fits perfectly.

we are very happy with it and recently went to holiday resort unity for our first trip at Brean somerset.

this weekend il be painting the units and probably have a go at revamping the sofa covers.
