Going by isabellas website it's an rodeos elusion 510/6 ? If so it says you need an awning size of 910 cm.
Any make of awning will fit as long as you buy the right size (910cm). All you need to do is phone any shop and say I have an "a" measurement of 910cm what awnings do you have that will fit?

Hope this helps

You could always play safe and buy a large porch awning which would then be easy to transfere to any future caravans you may buy without the obvious size issues.

If you go for a good quality easy erect one like the Kampa Rally 390, you get a good living space of approx 12ftx8ft which can be erected in about 15mins with practice and is very weather proof.

The Isabella website gives two Elddis vans produced in 1995 that are designated 510  one is an elddis Ellusion 51/6 which needs an A  measurement of 910cmm and Isabella awning recommended is a 925cm awning, the other is an Elddis wisp 510/5  which has an A measurement  of 895cm and needs an 900cm awning.  To make a final check on what you need measure around the awning rail starting at ground level at the back of the caravan up to the rail, then around the rail and back to ground level at the front.  If you want to check the website the address is http://62.242.39.22:591/isabella/uk/ameasurement/FMPro?-db=1963-2012.fp5&-format=resultater.html&-lay=form%20view&-sortfield=argang&-sortorder=descend&Fabrikat=elddis&Argang=1995&-max=10&-find=

For a licence dated 1997 or later you must add together the plated max weight of the caravan and trailer, if the total is 3500 or less you can tow it. You may even tow a caravan with a MAM greater than the cars unladen mass the restriction was removed in 2013

Romany girl have you used the kampa rally? We are looking for a lightweight awning like the kampa. We wnat something easy to erect and take down. Our main awning was damaged beyond repair in the recent high winds and we need something to use next week.
