Hi All

We have a 1984 4-berth Renault Traffice Holdsworth conversion camper van and want to get an awning to give us a bit more space - poss including sleeping area as have just got bed boards for kids at the moment.

Any advice on what to get - something not too heavy, easy to put up?

Thanks,

Andrea

Hi pete, I've never seen the 8 section in use, is it easy to unfasten when you want to drive off? or do you have to slide it out like a awning on a awning rail?

yes it is Rabb,you just ease the the top section verticle and its will come out easy,when refitting after a day out just hold it to the gutter ease it up again and it pops back in,my awning back unzips and rollls up so it very easy to do,I use the van steps to reach it as my van is quite high,on mine I have three pieces.

We have a VW Trident with no access to the gutters - does anyone know of a good drive away awning that would fit? Need aextra space for loo etc. Looking forward to the Easter break and getting away...
