    1994? Delta. Mentions double glazing at one point but its glass windows.
    Underfloor heater. Cuts Sun canopy. Starting bid £999.00 Buy It Now £1,500.00.

    I have an immaculate 93 Delta that will be having gas struts fitted and the Sun canopy turned into a lightweight awning. No heater but I'd be very happy with £1,500.00. This isn't so much advertising mine as lamenting that I don't want anyone I know to buy this.


    On Gumtree. Will accept £1,000 [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

    eBay 1996 Dart. No insulation or heater. Full awning. Cut on what looks like the wrap round flap area? Broken kitchen window one of the advantages of glass windows?
    It's probably just the door not been shut but zoom on the front door.

    Starting bid £700.00

    If you do your homework and if you can source a window. It could end up a bargain.

    Unless there is an obvious source for windows I don't see this moving.

    The last photo what is the lump on the tub wall near where it says "Dart" and the bed leg?

    Hmmm - seems like the Dandy sale season hath truly begun. New 2012 Dandy trailer tent and camper for sale thread now locked - Page 8 2792229418 Must have been the warm weather last weekend. Or it's 'cause we're approaching Easter.

    Now all I need is a great discovery or designer, winterised, with awning, fairly nearby and somewhere between 500 and 1500 quid.

    It was posted on eBay yesterday so that was a total of eleven Dandys posted on one day.

    Highside Destiny. Pickering. eBay. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]


    Just one sad thought that might be added as a sticky for Highside Destinys this year.

    We have at this point no idea what happened to the Destiny that was being sold from three different locations last year. If you come across a Destiny with a patch (any Dandy for that matter) be cautious. If the patch is near the offside wheel arch be very cautious.

    An uninsulated 5 Discovery type with heater and awning for £400 ONO.
    An insulated 5 that actually is a brown Designer but no heater. Possibly Dandy fitted electrics £500 initial bid. But eBay is swamped with Dandys at the moment. These prices would have been considered very reasonable at portions of last year.

    I quite like the look (and price!) of this one in Blackpool. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

    Unfortunately I can't respond to the advert yet. Didn't someone on here say they thought this might be someone who bought the high sided destiny a week ago. If so, are they on the forum? Anyone know?

    I suppose it's the usual -

    Any rips/tears/repairs in the PVC?
    Is it winterised/double skinned?
    Any idea of age?
    Is the awning a Dandy one?
    Condition of the legs and trailer body?
    Any more photos of the unit, preferably with the anwing?

    And to all the other users on this site - what do you think of it and the price?

    It isn't fully insulated but the colour is lovely and it has an awning plus underfloor heater, I like it and the price seems very fair. Very Happy

    Hi Kim
    The PVC is in generally good condition. No rips or tears but one of the zip seams on the Dandy awning is gaping for a section approx 4 inches.

    There are a 2 small breakthrough holes in the trailer body but they do not affect the wood behind or the main frame. I'll take some photo's of these. They have been there for some time and had no impact. It's only that I have washed it recently that I've noticed.
    Thanks
    Robert.

    The legs are good though weathered.

    I wanted to put more photos on but could only load 3. I will look for photos with the awning tomorrow. Its the standard Dandy one, matches the colour of the main tent and has the groundsheet and all the poles inc windbreak ones.

    The tent body is single skin but the roof is double as standard. I guess the tent is from the early 80s. I bought it from a couple in 2003 who'd had it since that time.

    Received: 7 hours ago
