Hi All, well after all our waiting we pick up our very first caravan in 5 hours Abbey Vogue 540 .

Sooo excited - don't know how long this 5 hours is going to last - we're thinking about sleeping in the garden tonight - neighbours wil probably think we're nuts but who cares - might even cook Sunday dinner in it - although I don't want to get the cooker dirty!!  First time towing too so we are really really excited!!  We have had the powrmover fitted so we should be ok at getting in all of those awkward places.  I'll post some pics when I get it home and of course have the time!!  Cheers Paul & Steph

Enjoy it. Good if you can store it at home. We use ours as a spare bedroom and have some friends who come to stay who would rather stay in the van. En suite, tea and coffee making facilities, central heating and comfy beds. What more could you ask for. Towing is not nearly as hard as you will be thinking. Good luck.
