Hello all I'm back again having sold up, missed it and restarting again.

I am due to pick up the above caravan this week from a local dealer and am as pleased as punch with what I am getting. I have picked up the paperwork and in it are two " Owners Handbooks " neither of which are dated

Both are almost identical except that one gives slightly different Length height and awning dimensions. It is a 1996 model.

Can anybody help with this and are there any comments on this 'van or any tips that I should be aware of

If you can post up a piccy of the outside of the van I might recognise the year by the style of decals, we had an Adonis and an Olympus of around the same era and both were part of the range as your Orion.

Thanks for the offer Romany Girl, I have now picked up the van and carried out the measurements and know which handbook to use. At the moment the OH and I are pleased with the buy (as are the grandchildren) and we are away to Rookesbury on Tuesday,all being well. We had a holiday in a static earlier this year and hated every minute of it.

I hope you have a lovely time at Rookesbury Park, we have been there in the past and O/H likes visiting Fort Nelson and spending time along that road at the vantage point pull-in carpark overlooking Portsmouth harbour and the Solent. well worth taking a good pair of binoculars with you to watch the wildlife and all the comings and goings in the harbour if you like that sort of thing

Julia, have been there many times and love that view across Pompey and the Solent to the IOW, also the view from Titchfield Haven. Thanks for the comments
