We need a caravan as soon as poss but are on a bit of a budget. Ive got my eye on two; a Dethfuss and a Crown touring caravan. (Both 5 berth). Can anyone advise which would be 'best'? This is our first caravan. Thanks.

Is it a Dethleffs? Have looked at some of these and the build quality is very good.  Cant comment on the crown as never seen one.

I have just sold a crown regent gt and had no snags in the three and a half years we owned it. My local dealer reakons they are a reliable van as well. Were very happy with ours.
