Hi I have bought a Cotswold Windrush I beleive t to be a 1987 model 11/20L it is 14`5" or 4.43meters, unladen weight 16.9cwt or 858kg at the front it has a single window and to the sides front, two compartments for the gas bottles and batterys.

Paloma water heater I think?, this dates it to late 70's I would say. There's also a vibrant Windrush owners club which can help on most matters, should be a link on this site somewhere

Notice your pulling it with a landy, I'd fit a Dixon-Bates 'shock link' on the towbar or you might find the caravan chassis cracking if you intend to tow very far. This stops vibration caused by the landy's cart spring suspension being transmitted through the towball onto the caravan chassis.

practical caravan's used van doc featured the cotswold celeste in the november 2007 issue, they were built to about 1989. good spec vans and you do see a few of them about

after googling for you matey here is the website of the windrush owners club http://www.windrush-caravan-club.co.uk/ 

enjoy your van and if the UKCS folk can help you just ask
