Just think before you buy about what you want from an awning. e.g if there are four five or six of you then a full sized awning may be just the ticket. However, if there are only two of you then a Porch Awning may be plenty big enough for what you want and save you money; And save space, and weight, in the car when you load it up!

if you are after the full awning  then the size is taken as a measurement from the ground into the awning rail - all the way round the rail out and back to the ground   normally in cms  so if you get a 950 you should be ok  900 probably too small  so depending on the make look for the size range with 930 in it   any way the shop if it is worth its salt will keep you right   if you are buying 2nd hand go to a shop and pretend you are buying one  just to make your mind easy    and don't laugh while the guy is explaining things to you!!
