SUPREME TERRITORY. just bought it

Dougwe · Chief one feather

How,

Shut the front gate!

How good is that. New Tug and now a new Den. Great stuff. New toys every where. We just need to get out in the playground so we can play with them.

Jeez, 25 foot! I don't even walk that far.

I did a lot of research on Supreme and others, went and looked at them. Nice! They were on my contender list, until I decided to stick with my existing van.

So I have caravan envy. Whooohooo, good for you, I'm sure you will love it. Did you get the washing machine? Can I use it? Just kidding

But enjoy. It's scary making the decision, but they have a good reputation. How exciting for you.

Dougwe... It's now a bucket, or something in a CP that requires coins.... Or, I'm gonna miss it really soon.

And we (you) have digressed

Supreme do a van with a front loader, my idea of heaven.

Congratulations Rocket - looks like a great van - I am sure you will enjoy your time travelling this great land in it.

Gerty Dancer · Guru

Good one Rocket!!! Many years of safe travels ahead for you!

We looked at the Supreme Territory (a bit smaller than yours) and were very impressed. The reason we didn't buy it was the salesman was an A-H! He wouldn't give us the weight of the van, talked for hours about other stuff. We found out eventually that it would have been too heavy for the Prado anyway.

Nearly done packing! It's the selling of stuff that im juggling. Hope to have caravan back this week and car all finished in 2 weeks. I've no time for anything to go wrong, so I'm crossing fingers it all goes right!!!! I also have to find a day to hit the Melb Leisure/caravan show. In 3 weeks I'll be on the road, destination unknown ;)

When will you be on the road in your lovely new van? (With washing machine!!!')

Hi Rocket

Good day and hope you will have many years of enjoying your caravan.

We own a 2008 Supreme 17' 6'' and love it to bits, now have had it for about 3 and half years purchased it second hand, been used but not abused you could say.

Never been kept in a shed, looked real good inside not a mark anywhere. The last owner updated to a new bigger model Supreme.

Now I do have a negative, sorry, sorry. but back earlier this year a bit of decorative panel separation near the front lounge become noticeable. About June it had increased, I thought before I try to sell the caravan I would get it looked at and then when we arrived home in late August I was cleaning the caravan out after another 6 weeks away I noticed that down in the cupboards beside the bed there was more, I will let the pictures tell the story.

I called a caravan repairer and called in explained it was water damage, firstly the front window area he could not show me but was sure he would find it when he dismantle that area. The rear he was able to show me when the water got in, externally where the side meets the rear panel there is a half moon sharp molding in there you find screws and with a bit of luck some sealant on each screw, if there is any rusty heads of screws that is where water will ingress.

It is not going to be to expensive to repair but I thought I brought well, the repairer seems to think no manufacture is better or worse then next but to convince them that they are using the wrong products is another thing.

If you get a chance try looking in the cupboards near the corners. Ralph.
