I have been looking for a golf savannah 402 caravan to buy but cannot find either a new or used van available for sale. If you spy one give me a heads up. Thanks

Would welcome comments regarding ground conditions in general locale central Queensland especially. Are they mudholes or easily negotiable without sinking in the ground. Same for grassy vanparks. ????

Interesting statistic from elsewhere on the forum, so possibly missed by many? Would those caravanners who are ignorant of their weights be more likely to simply not know because they've never bothered to check their weights, or are they more likely to simply not care? Cheers

I just read this article about frozen and tinned fruit and veggies may be better for you that fresh varieties. If the fresh fruit and veggies are hitting the hip pocket too hard then maybe consider frozen or tinned. Is fresh produce better than tinned and frozen fruit and veg? Not always, these exper...

The release valve seems to be stuck when I attempt to lower the van. I have managed to release it before and the van came flying down to the ground! Not good at all. Any advice on how to slowly lower it will be great. Cheers

I was just going through a few different choices of cooking outside my new motorhome and particularly the choice between open burner types and the closed lid type, such as Weber BabyQ's. I was looking through the Dometic website in particular which displayed both types. Not looking to start a war o...

Like most caravan owners, we have gone around and around in circles attempting to make what is a very uncomfortable mattress tolerable. After the usual mods such as mattress toppers, new mattress etc we have come to the conclusion that we need to replace the bamboo slats on the bed base that make life...

HI, Just needing some information if possible. Our van is losing 240v power only on the lights. The power points are still working, the tv is working but not the aerial, the range hood and the fridge are not working. The fridge did go under water during the floods however it has been working fine sinc...

Hi all, Has anyone recently installed security cameras and motion detectors in or outside their van. We started a trip up north on Sunday and stopped at my sons in Bulimba Brisbane on Tuesday. Parked the caravan in his front yard with my Pajero Sport next to it. My wifes sister is over from the UK so we w...

The original 22" TV (NCE - ever heard of it!!!!!) that came with my Retreat caravan is the worst piece of electrical (you know what) I have ever seen. Can anyone recommend a good quality (even smart) 12volt TV for use in a 24' caravan. I have been told that the brackets are universal. I live in Perth WA. A...

It is a well known topic to never use the towball for a snatch recovery, but, a snatch recovery doesnt always mean a twenty meter run up. Just a gentle forward move should be sufficient. If a snatch strap was not to be used, just a normal recovery strap with no kinetic energy, would not the forces be the sam...

All of a sudden there seems to be heaps of off road vans around. some big 22 footers that are as high as a block of flats, and not cheap to buy new. I tow at about 90kph and they go past me like I'm nailed to the fence. They seemed to have a very high centre of gravity, surely that wouldn't enhance stability? I on...
