I am looking to buy a awning for my K registered C15 Romahome. Prfered type - a small drive away at a reasonable price. Sunny

I have both the Movelite and Harrison driveaway awnings for sale.
The Movelite comes with a ground sheet but no bedroom pod. Used rarely. cost £90 plus postage Harrison Awning, complete with toilet cubicle, curtains, and pegs, has slight damage to the door section, where the mud flap has come away from the top bit along the seam for about 6" this was as I brought it, due to it being stood on, and not rolled away fully. All in perfect order otherwise. cost £100 new £450
Both awnings fit my Hytop C15. please postage/delivery charges
or can be collected from Wolverhampton

Hi Joan, Could the damage on the Harrison door section be repaired with tape ? How do you fix the Harrison to the van as at present I don't have any means of fixing? Which is the lighter of the two awnings you have for sale ? I seem to remember reading that you are not too tall, I am quite short, so which would you recommend to be the easiest to put up ? I am near to Derby. Sandra

Hi Sandra,
Yes the damage can be repaired by tape. Both awnings are just thrown over the top of the van, and you pull tight on the elastic, and peg down.
The Movelite is the lighter, has three doors, and poles are threaded through, it is a ring and peg, meaning, you have to place the peg up into the ring, which my hands sometimes are not strong enough to do.
The Harrison, has an Apex roof, and it made up of Alum. poles, which break in half, so that you place it on its knees (so to speak) and pull the awning over the top, then just snap the legs to full height, again throw the connecting flap over the top of the van, tighten and peg down.
When I say over the top, I just mean over the back door and on to the roof bit, you do need a step for this.
I have usually find a tall person, and ask for their assistance, and 'bobs' your uncle. never been refused yet.
The Harrison with it having alum poles as a frame, you are able to use these to hang things from. It is courses for horses really. I have carried both awnings at one time or another behind the drivers and passengers seats, but I usually sling them onto the floor in the back.
I go away Friday for 3 weeks, but I shall be in Derby Friday as I am flying from EMA and my sons live in Derby.

Hi Joan The Harrison sounds good as I want a toilet tent. Unfortunately I am away on Friday (only weekend). I am not in a great rush so you could get in touch after your hols (3 weeks, lucky you) I presume your asking price is £100ish. Sandra
