Light weight caravan

Actually looking for an eriba, seen two both were not quite right. Reluctantly I would consider another make that's cheap and dry, only 2 berth required. Any suggestions, max all up weight 1200kg as car is only a 1600 diesel.

You could try Adria, I have one ,its 5 berth and MTPLM is only 1200kg, there are smaller two berth versions available, but very rarely see them advertised used. Depending on your budget, you could score with a brand new one,or nearly new, try visiting some local dealers, as the new models came out in September, there may be some bargains to be had with p/ex models.
The new ones now are minimum 4 berth, but as I mentioned above there are dealers throughout the country,enclosed is a link to the website, there is a dealer locater , just type in your postcode. Hope this helps.

Hi
Thanks for the suggestions. I'm now paranoid about water Ingress/damp. Phoned up about a small elddis van just 3 yrs old. Ok it's got a 10 yr warantee on those problems, the owner said during its second service damp was detected and remedied! Might still go and see it, guy was just answering my question honestly. Want to go to morocco in the new year, at the moment we have a decathlon tent.

I succumbed and bought it! Need to suck it and see. The warrantee is a joke. First owner gets 10 yrs, I buy it at 3 yrs old, pay £75 and get a further 3, not the full 7. They obviously don't like these water ingress / damp warrantees. This one has already had such work done on it. It's in almost as new condition, first owner was fastidious, he let us have all his accessories, only need an awning for summer, the size is 756 I think. We shall see.
