    The Designer highlighted is located in Bewdley. So I thought you might be going to look.

    Then read the piece about your visit to Riva where you appeared to change your mind about a Designer.

    Brown and White 4/5? for sale possibly sold with awning.
    Cracking example of use of other awning.
    What size is it? I'd be thinking it's a five with a bedside window but is that a standard window or two panes?
    Are those original or retro fit skirts?

    The only listed addition I can find for this add was a postage addition at 21.50.
    So it was listed with sold sold sold on end of add?

    If you look at picture 8 you can just about see the pvc side wall peeping through the left edge of the modesty curtain and it looks like it isn't fully insulated but it is a nice unit Very Happy

    [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] now with pictures and a buy it now of £600,insulated under floor heater,if his description is correct the bar at the top of two batwings needs replacing and new cushions on the dining area,i know foam isnt cheap and unless you are bit handy you may have to get some one to make the batwing arms,but could be worth considering.



    Just noticed it has struts fitted on the side walls,perhaps a glamping project for some one Ali affraid

    I said I didn't think it was looking at the little bit of side wall peeping behind one of the modesty curtains in picture 8. It is a nice looking unit though but I wouldn't like to go from insulated to uninsulated now especially in a larger unit.

    This one may not be a pretty blue one but it's inside walls are white and that means insulation too cheers

    Comment required from you 6 owners. Are those cross bars just square section tube? The 5 sized Dandys have a dog leg welded on for the hinge to the wall. If just plain square section tubing it might be very cheap. I would normally go for the cheapest source but if your passing Ian at Riva will have it in stock and isn't that expensive.

    If your passing Riva I have 2 bed pieces and the 4 seat pieces of foam for a camper covered in the same brown check as brown 6's. They are not from a Dandy but from my old FC the sizes are not as per a 6, I think they are about 1" to 2" out, but they would certainly do for a while. For you who fear bed condensation the underside of the beds are not fabric but vinyl. I've had these on a shelf in my garage for about 10 months, they need to go. Free to good home.

    AS far as i can remember the bars are just straight box section with a hole at one end and the plastic fitments at the other but not sure and would have to remove insulation to check.

    Just have a quick feel (oh'er missus) near the edge of the wall.

    The only other thing I've seen is on 5's where cut box (or plate) drops down at an angle to hinge lower down on the wall boards.

    Not looked too closely don't know if it's to remove stress from the corner of the wall?

    I suppose the answers the same. If it's plain it will be cheap from Riva, if it's a welded piece Ian knows the design, phone him for a price before you consider welding yourself.

    Had a quick feel while Nancy was outside affraid it certainly looks and feels like a straight bar,marvellous how many time i erect the dandy and never taken any notice,if it had been the same colour as mine i would have hit the buy it now at 5 am this morning and swapped the batwing pvc to make mine proper insulation,it costs more than that just for insulation.

    Firty percent of ones on Gumtree are spilt like that.

    I always searched for "Dandy Camper" and "Dandy Tent" and doubtlessly still missed the odd one.

    Seen this on Gumtree. I knew I'd seen it before.
    [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

    It's described in good condition without rips or tears. Then read the eBay advert!
    It's not a five at best it's a 41/2
    THERE IS NO MENTION THAT THEY HAVE DISCONNECTED THE BRAKES.
    Still up for £520 if they're desperate to sell I suggest lowering the price not forgetting to tell the truth.

    1982 Four and a half. Looks nice enough but not cheap. Doesn't mention whether insulated or not.
