As a newcomer to caravan life I have bought a Abbey Spectrum twin axle gmv 1740 and want some advice on the best caravan mover. Is it best to go with all wheel drive or just the two axles being driven. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I was just reading some posts on another forum (albeit about four years old) on the lack of insulation and leaking seals causing very bad rotting in RVs. Just wondering if this is still a problem in modern/current vans or if anyone has had problems like this.

I have looked at a few motor homes and many only have 1 9kg gas bottle. I would like to carry a spare, where do you guys with a motorhome put it. I am not keen on having it inside, I would be thinking of fitting a rear storage box, but would it be safe in there, any information and suggestions welcome.
