    Hello municipality, am looking for a small, narrow and light caravan with space for 3 people (used, max. 5TE, BJ approx. from 2000) From the technical data and the layout, I would prefer the Eriba Touring Triton 430, but that is priceless, but so I would like to have it from layout and equipment: a fixed bed, a sitting area (remodelling to bed for 3rd person) kitchen, toilet and all about the dimensions of max. 5.22 long and about 2.00 wide at about 800 kg curb weight In about the Adriatic Unica A390 DS comes to the near trap someone still other alternatives ?

  • Who has own experience with ERIBA “Feeling”

    Who can report from as own experience as possible about the ERIBA “feeling”. Above all also about the function of the folding roof and the sleeping place under the roof. I saw the vehicle at a dealer and was very pleased with the variant. However, would like to learn more from the users of this model. In advance a thank you to the Feeling camper.

  • Boxcar-WoMo for 2 adults and 2 children wanted…

    … with space for a wet room (shower, toilet [porta potti or similar portable toilet would be sufficient], washbasin), a 2-burner gas cooker, sink and fridge (with ice compartment is enough), whereby only 2 of the 4 beds should be converted, i.e. if necessary bunk bed for the children in the rear and front a dinette for conversion into a double bed for the parents or – even better – the latter as a lifting bed*, so that the dinette would not have to be converted at all. The seat behind the dinette has to offer 2 seats during the ride for the children – currently still with children’s car seats, which I would have to stow somewhere after the ride, where they do not disturb. Since I still made the “old” driver’s license, I may not be able to drive to 7.5t (but not to be). Anyway, the ride should be max. 2,40m wide, but not extended to the parking space of the dinette.

  • light caravan with double bed + bunk bed with no WC wanted.

    Hello, we are currently looking for a used caravan with the following basic data. The bunk bed can also be foldable if necessary. After first searches seems to be very small with the offer of such caravans. Is that so? After which manufacturers and series it is worth looking? We had already discovered one of Kip which would have fit but it was immediately gone and since then one of them has not appeared again. Also a Knaus Mustang.

  • Tips for buying my first camper

    Hello forum people, hope that you can also give me some useful tips and answers. 🙂 I want to buy a camping bus or a camper. Because my budget is rather low (500€+) I think that a larger model like an alcove is rather not in my price range. Nevertheless, I do not just want a larger car with lying area, but at best a car, in which I can at least stand upright. Think perhaps of a box van like an older Mercedes or a Ford Nugget. Due to my budget it can of course not be the latest model, but I would not wish to have to shower immediately to the mechanic in the first year. In addition, the consumption should also be to a more bearable extent; would have been before driving longer distances with it. Stand heating would be optimal and uphill it should not remain. Inside it does not have to be top equipped; for example, no wet cell (WC and Co.) or sitting area. Otherwise, I would have to work a bit with it on the inside. Thus, I ask you if you can not give me the answers to the models?

  • Check at Neuwagen Takeover – pay attention to what?

    Hello forum team, at the end of May it is time, we get our brand new LMC Style Lift caravan. Since the collection is about 250km away from us, your opinions would interest me, what should be checked at handover everything. Dier ordered equipment for presence check, of course. But maybe there are further details, which should be examined directly?! What experiences did you make during the purchase of new cars, which then only one day later noticed? I look forward to your opinions and discussions. Best regards Patrick

  • Recommendation Smoke detector for caravans

    Search a reliable smoke detector for the caravan. In my Fendt caravan is a series of installed. But this type smoke detector shines thereby to make mistakes. It seems that this type has problems with high outside temperature. A smoke detector is very useful only this should work already. Greeting Volker

  • WoWa-Kaufberatung für Camper-Neuling / Hobby Prestige

    What do I want to do with my car and moped? I would like to buy a caravan now. Since there is not much money left and I would like to make it to my liking anyway, I don’t have a lot of budget and I don’t expect to buy a caravan. I would like to spend up to 1000€. Because of my dad (roomman) I have the material and the tools to renovate various wooden parts of the structure if necessary. So that’s no problem. In terms of size, it should offer plenty of space for two people, but sleeping places for 4 people would not be perspectively wrong. For example, a combination of double bed and sitting area with sleeping function. I don’t find the idea with the bicycle carrier on the drawbar bad. Does this also work with WhereWhat with gas box? Train vehicle would be a Opel Vectra C Caravan with 1700kg. Attachment load. BE is of course available. I already have a WoWa with matching price and not too great distance. I would like to hear your opinion about it:https://www.ebay-smallanze.de//1040411024?

  • Tips for buying caravans

    Greetings !!! We want to get a caravan, now my questions. I think to leave the shower away (more storage space), or what do you think about the topic of showers, shower you in the caravan or are the really dense ? My 2nd question which manufacturer is to recommend ? We are real newcomers in the topic caravans. We have already looked at many, but like this is almost every seller lifts his wowa into the sky. There is nothing about experiences. For your tips already in advance many thanks Marco
