Waving goodbye to Abbey

Jamie · 1st February 2008, 11:42

After a rather traumatic experience last september....you may remember I decided to part company with our Beloved Abbey touring caravan....well today its happened....the cheque cleared...a young family arrived from Brum and collected their new pride and joy.

Not sure how long it will last as their little tike was pulling at every little bit that he could doing his darndest to snap off anything withtin his reach!!

Anyway....my love affair with my Abbey has ended for now.....if anyone would like a brand new boxed 950cm Awning then please let me know!!

Abbey 1992 - 2008
loved and hated
RIP

Decent camper van has always been my choice in the past. A frame trailer for the Zed. Best of all worlds.

Lee, thats Brilliant! thank you...it is in the buy and sell magazine this week so I will let you know if it goes.

Its an Acrylic 950 cm Burgandy Pyramid Corsican Awning with lightweight alloy frame and the optional matching windbreak, there is also a brand new breathable grey carpet. its one of the latest models, brand new still boxed, (although we unwrapped it all in October to try it against the caravan) It cost just over £500 and we would like £300 for it....a bit of a bargain but buyer would need to collect as the packaging costs would be crackers.

Thanks so much Lee...really grateful!
