Hi , I have just bought my first C15 HY-LO , a bit ancient, but very usable . Has anyone out there got a reasonably priced Harrison Drive-Away awning , they could sell me please ? This is the only type I have been informed about,but if there are any other suitable makes , then please get in touch ? unless it is in Cornwall , it would have to be sent , please , obviously I would pay the carriage charge.
Many Thanks
PLEASE HELP ?

Hi and welcome to the site! the Movelite awning is another one to look for and which will fit. there are also smaller utility tents which you can put up alongside - all depends on what you need them for. Argos do a 'handy tent' which is ok for just storage and daytime living space as well. If you actually want to sleep in it, or really have an extension to your van, then an awning is the thing to buy. Here's a pic of mine:  The Harrisons are more expensive I think! |

Hi, I have both the Harrison and Movelite, and use both for different reasons. The movelite has 3 doors and you can use any as a canopy, plus it has the added advantage of having a double bed pod, if you need to use it.
The Harrison, has only 1 door, has curtains, and alum. poles which are great when you are away for move than a weekend as you are able to hang up coats etc and bags of food so nothing on the ground for the critters to get at.
I can manage the Harrison just about on my own. But the movelite I need help with the ring and peg due to arthitius in my thumbs I dont always have the strength.
Movelite is lighter and easier to move in and out of the van, than the Harrison.
Courses for horses, plus I have a utility tent,, but there again, I seem to buy everything 'just in case'
Good luck with your search, you could try the Roma Club 'For Sale' section which is available to non members you may find one there.

Hi, non for sale, the model that both JJ and I have are just Movelite, by Outdoor revolution.
If you are or become a member of the UKCampsite internet camping club, which is free,you usual receive a discount on this item. as you do if you buy a Cobb BBQ or Delta pegs.
I do know that someone managed to buy really cheap in a sale, not sure where, I checked it out first in a camping shop then ordered online from Outdoor Revolution, delivery next day, no problems at all.
Hope the above helps.
