whats the problem a number plate is matched to the tow car and nothing to do with a caravan.

if he fitted the Batt and a fault happened he may have been liable. I think he is right. if the van was sold it would not have your numberplate on it and if it did thats their problem not yours.

must be me but cant understand the post!

They can't provide a plate by law until they have seen your evidence of car ownership, car v5 and utility bills etc.

We took these with us and the dealer put a new plate on for us.

Our last caravan was supplied by Orpington caravans, when we went to collect it they swapped everything from the old van to the new one and also fitted the Alko towball for us, then hitched it onto the car. We bought our current van from Discover last year and we had to do the lot ourselves, even had to keep my old number plate but that wasn't so bad as it was supplied by a car accessory shop.

I too had this, got van home looked in gas locker no pigtail swift did not supply them in 2010 the excuse being we didn,t know if you are using propane or butane

So i rang local caravan engineer who came and fitted a nice s/s one £40 for 2011 swift are now fitting as standard a pigtail but i don,t know if its s/s

Just shows some dealers are much better than others

i don,t ever want to go back to chorley and i just hope i have no warrenty claims
