Thank you Marie! I'm still trying to put all couples and children together was your oh Malcolm and your children Bethany and George ? or have I got that completely wrong?

Our caravan is a Rapido confortmatic, there are 3 different models:confortmatic,recordmatic and exportmatic. Ours is the smallest model and we did briefly(by mistake) own an exportmatic but it was too big for the Imp to tow.I do have technical info on all 3 models if interested(I sound like a right spanner don't I) and also erection instructions too (for the Rapido's that is you do understand) If I can answer any questions about these great little vans I will but don't claim to be any sort of expert just what we know from using it!

Hi Marie P

You could have a look at http://www.goburcaravans.co.uk/ they are still made, and good old Dandys of course which are a sort of cross between caravans and folding campers. http://www.rivaleisureltd.co.uk/index.html

I recommend Gobur folding caravans. We had one for some years after we sold our folding camper. So much more convenient than the camper and really easy to tow. It was great . The company is based in Norfolk and is small, very friendly and the staff are all most helpful. Can't fault either the caravan or the company.
