I'll be interested how you get on with the Darche 270. It's one that has caught my eye at the LRO Show and is more economical that the Alu-cab Shadow awn.

I just wonder if an Australian awning will hold up to the British weather? I'll be watching with interest. Thumbs Up James

My partner said it was nice when she saw it on Davidstowe the other weekend - nice to see another camper in Cornwall - you never know we may bump into each other one day and compare notes Cool

So an update..a light bar was always on the list ( I told her it was important.) so duly ordered which was s to be fair a bit of a con as it was kinda displayed as a Uk company turned out to be French … however Cree light bar ordered and duly arrived.. and fitted ….good quality item and to be fair they dropped tha price which cover the customs cost …
The front runner window had an ongoing issue with a leak ..duly moaned and eventually re-laced with new locks which still leak so with this space .
