Really pleased after weeks of looking for a caravan within my budget have finally got myself an Abi Marauder 450s. Hopefully pick it up this weekend.

We had an ABI Marauder as our first van - one of the green ones.  No mod cons. but solidly built.  Hope you enjoy the van.

I've also got an ABI, the Cricket a 5 berth 1992 limited edition model.  At 17 years old the interior is still like new and the exterior just has a couple of knocks.  They are solid and reliable vans. 

Well done on your purchase and enjoy your van!

There's a very helpful ABI Caravan Owners Club. Not only do they give helpful advice, but they'll send you a manual for your van for the price of a stamp.

Had mine since December - great little van - the 12/2 Starlet. Only issue is the water heather gave up the ghost last time I was away - so gotta have a look at that to see if it is fixable or not.

We had an Abbey Ace Pioneer XL. Only discovered on our first night that the front double was only 3' 4" wide. Had to sleep with a lot hanging over the edge, but at least my wife didn't mind me getting up in the wee small hours to go fishing.

The toilet compartment had the corner cut off with a folding inward opening door. I revamped it so the door opened outwards. made a huge difference.

Other than that we loved it.

We bought an ABI 450ctl 4 berth, took it to Cornwall for two weeks and absouloutly loved it. It is 18 years old and spotless, no damp, really, comfy and cosy and the kids (age 10 & 6) love the bunk beds.

I'm sure you will be happy with yours
