Still got character, and most caravans after about 1985 have virtually everything the latest ones have anyway. Other than styling, in my opinion little has changed since the mid-80s. I have often asked myself what does the very latest caravan have that mine doesn't? I struggle to answer that except for air-conditioning and a microwave. Few of the latest caravans have air-con, and you can buy a microwave if you want one for £25.
Oh lots of lovely “ladies if a certain age”. I do love their character ... well today we ticked off a lot of things. Towbar; practised raiding and lowering steadies; practising hitching; testing electrics/lights via towbar electrics - yay they worked!; neighbours helped me turn the van so it is now facing an easier way out of the street; switched off the gas; found the date on the tyres. Soooo tomorrow we are off to take her into storage until opening day - hopefully not too long away. Thank you for all your advice and encouragement. We are super excited to be tin tent owners! Katy x

Really pleased for you Katy. If there is anything else we can help with, just ask. Always lots of tips you pick up as you go along such as using a spirit level to get the caravan level on site. You can get a little one that sticks on the drawbar cover like the one we have. Makes getting it sitting just right much easier.
