Sorry about your window. Hope you can replace it with the minimum of hassle.
An increasing number of Coastal sites in popular areas appear to be converting to the 'PACKINEM IN'type.

Try GW Caravans on ebay or Autotech Leisure in Poole, these are two late model breakers who hopefully can help.

Don't worry about the cris number to much though, if you really want it then cris will supply a DIY kit for a fee

I thought the law (fire regs) dictated the space between caravans/tents/motorhomes etc?

I would think about reporting them if you were not happy.

Never thought about that side of it till it was mentioned on here, they were very quick to fill in a a deep pot hole next to the tree that could have unbalanced the van and caused an accident....however this was our fault on this occasion just took the corner too close concentrating on the tent that was on one side of us, and the tent on the other,,,,guide ropes etc in the way,  and only leaving us about 10-12ft to reverse in

you can get one made at   www.eeco-ltd.co.uk  they copy your window.this requires removing the window and sending it off,takes about three weeks.ring for a quote.to measure the window,measure the opening not the window.i had three made by them.they were a quarter of one inch small overall due to being re-moulded.cover the van with large blue sheets from the pound shop.
