We have just bought an Eriba Puck L as we have been looking for a small caravan to fit under our car port so we could have impromptu weekend breaks (needed a caravan under 200 cm width so we can just get up 'and go'). Got ours from AL although saw loads of Eribas on Preloved, Gumtree and Caravan Club websites; bought our Eriba from dealer for piece of mind but if you know what you are looking for (and you are more savy than us - not saying much!) than you can probably get a bargain.

Hi Julie

I just looked up the Eriba Puck, what a brilliant looking van.  I like the idea of get up and go, did that myself on Friday, but with my tent.

Hi Norman,

Hope you enjoyed fab weather that we had down 'south'. 

All the best,

Julie

I went to the Red Squirrel (tent's only) in Glencoe on Friday. Got a touch too much sun, stunning place, deer, ducks and high high mountains. My dilemma of course being that this wonderful site is not for caravans, once there you'd understand why. So what to do - I like the freedom of the car/tent however in the poor weather the Eriba makes so much sense. Hope you have good weather down 'south' come the start of May.

I think I have heard about the Red Squirrel campsite before (Jel Boy???) anyway the way I am thinking is that I will use the Eriba for most breaks but will still keep our Virginia 5 too.  Going to France with 2 other families in August and are taking the tent and awning as it will be less stressful.

 Want to have the best of both worlds but think the Puck L will give us quick get aways without the worry of drying the tent off afterwards. 

Glad you had a great time at Glencoe, keep putting on the after sun!

Best wishes,

Julie

Hi Tentz,

I don't know, we thought about it and think taking the tent will be less bother and cost.  Eurotunnel then towing the Eriba trying to get to the Northern Vendee in time for early evening as newbie carvanners.  If it was just the two of us it would be different, we could meander down,  but are taking our two large teenagers and meeting family at the campsite makes it a different ball game.

Maybe next year.....
