we've had our van for nearly a year, its only a year old. been in storage which we pay 160 quid for!!! just had a telephone call that its been broken in to & the scumbags have stolen our radio system  (which is bulit in as its a ranger gt60) very very annoyed, but the worrying thing is they just stuck a screwdriver (we think) into the lock & it popped right open!!! luckily we remove most things so they just got our radio. could anyone advise us if there is anything extra we could add to the door area for extra security? alternatively, a more secure site in the upper swansea valley. thanks

sorry about your van,there are better locks you can fit but a better storage site is preferable. see

i know, we really want to move but sites are very few & far between up here, the other site we tried was also broken into before christmas. so looks like it will have to be extra security

Hi Allison, There was a caravan storage place in seven sisters just off dulais rd (A4109)

Behind the golf range, only 15 min drive from Swansea, not lived in seven for over 2 years but it did look a very good place, hope it helps,

Steve

thanks steve, ye we did try there last year, never returned my call so i went with next best. got a mate in crynant who's going to ask if they have room tomorrow though, think its the only option at the moment!

 Hi Allison, Did you have any luck with your storage?

Allison -

Sorry to hear about your break-in. As others have said a CASSOA site might offer better security, Silver or Gold if you can find one. You might have to pay a bit more though if your reference to £160 is per annum. In the Midlands £300 - £450 is more like the range.
