Riversway Leisure offer. Caravan covers. I can buy, what looks like, a good tailored one for my caravan An Elddis Mistral 12-14ft for £59. Sounds good to keep my unit dry and clean. Any more thoughts out there? Mind you, I am still hoping to have a few days away in my unit, whilst the weather holds. We are looking for a site down south, that has a cycle trail nearby.

Having looked around, my friends Towsure seem to start at £60 for my unit. So looks like that is the one. I decided to make my own response, cos I felt lonely.

Geejay, well they are a damn sight cheaper than Argos, theirs is £99, so it looks like youve got a good bargain there.

A year ago I was quoted £300 for a cover for my 'van (from ProTech), so £59 is a bargain. I'm sure it won't be the same quality, won't be exactly tailored to the individual van, and won't last quite as long, but £300 seemed a big investment then, so we didn't bother. Less than £100 is more tempting.

I have a towsure cover, it is universal but fits well if you take time to position the straps correctly, The towsure covers are breathable and there is plenty of air ciculating underneath so I've never found any damp or moisture underneath it. And its great to uncover a nice clean van ready for hols again....
