I have a Hymer Nova 470 bought new in 2003 and I would not swap it for anything else, it is quite simply superbly designed for the job and the way the exterior bodywork is constructed gives me absolute confidence in it.

What year is the van if you let me know I can probably copy the original brochure detals for you and send them on, I think I have every brochure from 2003 through till 2008.

For a licence dated 1997 or later you must add together the plated max weight of the caravan and trailer, if the total is 3500 or less you can tow it. You may even tow a caravan with a MAM greater than the cars unladen mass the restriction was removed in 2013

We have had a 2002 MY 545 and now a 2008 MY 546, like Janus said would not swap it for anything else presently on the market.
Unfortunately the weak pound makes new ones very expensive and if the pound continues low will give good residuals on the older ones.
Watertight integrity set standards other struggle to meet.

Ernie.
We have a 570 SL.
This is the first van we have owned that has never had a single thing go wrong with it.
The build quality is superb, the materials used are up to the job for all year round use. After 3 years ours looks as good as the day I bought it.
Yes there are a few design issues that are a throw over from its german origins,and it is also a bit heavier than similar sized Uk produced models, but unlike my previous vans I feel it will last for many years to come.
If you are happy with the layout and have a vehicle suitable to tow it,then you wont go far wrong.In addition you are close to the main dealer at Lowdhams leisure, so servicing etc will not be a problem.

Nova 530tb 2002 from the brochure

Overall length 23'6" Body Length  19' 3" Awning length 1001cm overall width 7'6"  internal width 7'3" MTPLM1650kg MIRO 1340kg 

There is lots more but those are the ones that matter.

The water system is pure Hymer, there is  a 45litre internal tank with a petrol filler like cap to take off so that you can pump the water into it, alternatively you can plug their pump and electrical connection into the fitting on the outside and use it with the aquaroll, just do not plug the water pipe in and then turn the external switch on as you will blow out the seals that allow the system to work. I presume that with a superpitch you would have to get some device to put into the aquaroll to allow a mains pipe to connect.
