If it has the same roven 14" wheels as ours ( almost certain ) then the wheel lock has the number 23 insert.

Hi, I was considering getting one of these late last year.   I was offered a 2010 off  forecourt in December for £11,300 in December, I presummed the discount was due to it being the end of line of 2010 etc, but not sure.

I think the MTPLM of your van is: 1433kg

The Alko's come in three types

1300, 2004, and the 3004.

The model No's I beleive also refers to the weight that can be towed with it, so this rules out the 1300 for you, so you would need either the 2004, or the 3004.

Cheers

Tony B

Also, make sure that you have the right type of tow ball fitted to your car.  The standard tow balls tend not to allow enough space, and when you take tight bends you rung can take chunks out of the alloy head on the Alko aginst the to ball gaurd which is to close.

Either that or you can fit a spacer as we have recently and this should make enough difference.

I've got a 2011 sprite major 6 and only difference I've been told between '10 and '11 models is the sink on the newer model matches the work surface. I bought mine at the caravan show last October and the price I paid is still £1,500 cheaper than 2010 models being sold by my local dealership. Unless you get a significant discount off a 2010 model. I'd wait and get a 2011 (or 2012) one at the next caravan show at a better price.
