There's an association of them ... all qualified it says on the web-site.

I got hold of a local one who came over, looked at what needed doing and agreed to do it ... took one of my ceiling lights away with him to get a part, measured up for another job that needed doing to the roof panel joints ... and made a note that I was going away in a month's time .... even phoned to say he couldn't fix the light and I'd have to buy a new one. That was the last I heard of him! ... I've been back a month ... I forgot all about it till I was in the caravan this morning and noticed the missing light fitting ... reliable bunch this association! ... anyone else had problems? Trouble is I can't find his card or remember what the web-site was called ... I expect I can find it! ... I promised him end and beginning of season services as well.

Think it'll be easier to drag the thing off to the main dealers in future! ... Mobile van engineers association! ... Laugh a minute!

Just found it ..... www.mobilecaravanengineers.co.uk

Didn't recoginise any names ... maybe he's gone out of business .. wouldn't surprise me! Before I recommend nobody goes near them ... is there a reliable member of this band of brothers anywhere in Hants/Berks/Oxon who wants some business? I live near Newbury ... or am I being silly thinking that a mobile caravan engineer might look at a caravan web-site?

Most of that lot looked suspiciously like dealers to me! ... Down my way anyway!

I don't mind taking it to a dealer ... I contacted a member of this 'association' in the first place to save me having to make 2 trips taking it to a dealer and bringing it back ... the cost of the servicing doesn't really matter but I suspect the dealers will cost twice as much ... only guessing but I might be right.

Not sure wht i associated you with Newbury..My service covers a 50 mile radius of Oxford.

......... and a further update .........

 Garry has just left having turned up on time, which makes a change these days, done the jobs required perfectly, and done a couple of other jobs which I sprang on him while he was here. He also keeps a van load of anything you're ever likely to need.

Can't recommend him highly enough ... if you live within his radius - 50 miles from Oxford - then I suggest you get in touch for all your servicing or repairs.

(No connection other than a satisfied customer ... see original post and Garry's offer above)
