hi all can i just start by saying how helpful you all are and already answered loads of questions for  us all . we have just bought a avondale dart 556 2002 and are so excited , our first outing is on the 8th and 9th of next month and am like a big kid , have tented for 4 years and last years experience in cornwall with high winds really made up my mind to look for a van as our lovely 12 man tent took at total beating ,we are a bit nervous as last owner did not regester it so have done cris check and all does seem ok (fingers crossed ) we have 31 days for registered last keeper to reply so only week and half to go !!!!!!!! few bad dreams but she is in secure look up at moment .... we have trouble with fridge tripping out on hook up but as read on forum already could be damp so hopefully running on gas should be enough , main thing is tyre preasures (13 inch) if anyone knows or has a dart 556 would be fab for help , well  this is probs the first questions of many i will have for you very helpful peps and hope we have a cracker of a summer this year

kind regards

welcome,the only silly question is the one you do not ask.enjoy your van.tyres it depends on weight of caravan and size and type as to the pressure.
