Thanks for your responses, the coupling is a Westfalia 55K which I am told would not have originally have been fitted to my Elddis Cyclone Vogue SE 1997. I've called up Camper lands they weren't confident that it would fit so are going to call back.

Many thanks

Did you ever get a hitch lock for you SSK? I have exactly the same hitch on my 1990 Swift Corniche 14/2 and can't get insurance because I can't find a hitch lock for it. 2 wheel clamps aren't good enough for the insurers, neither are the 'expanding ball' type hitch locks.

Sorry only just noticed this, I didn't manage to find a cost effective solution to this problem, in the end I changed insurance company to www.insurance4mycaravan.co.uk who are a little less on cost but I didn't need the hitch lock for the policy I took out.
Hope this helps someone!!
:-)
