A Thule Omnistor awning provides shade in hotter climes.
Internal water tank 30 litres required when showering and when on the road.

Avtex mobile Wi-Fi system (Smarty sim card not included) provides connection for mobile phones and for the Avtex smart tv; mount and travel case included in the sale.
A fully-fitted one-piece quality pile carpet completes the luxury feel by providing cushioning and extra insulation for the floor. The plastic carpet protector currently in place can easily be removed if no longer required.

There have been no pets or smokers in the caravan.
For anyone unfamiliar with the tried and tested Eriba “Pop-top” roof, it is very easy to put up or down, has double tough fabric walls for insulation and large zipped areas for extra ventilation in summer. It provides a wonderful filtered light interior in daylight, and at night there is excellent ventilation without the insecurity of having to leave open windows.
When travelling we do not need to raise the roof, but people over 171 cm tall may need to.
The Eriba is fully winterised for all-season use, having an internal water tank and good heating.
The external width of the Eriba 542 is 210 cm which is within the width of our towing vehicle and no added wing mirrors are needed. The long tow bar, narrow width, and lowered roofline make for safe, economical and easy towing wherever we go.
The caravan has been registered with the DVLA under the new trailer registration system and complies with EU requirements. It also provides proof of ownership which will be transferred on completion. (see photo)
