Very detailed show and tell. Best I’ve seen especially for anyone thinking of purchasing an Eriba and good info for any caravan purchase. Thanks for taking the time to film and edit. Enjoying working my way through your content even though we are tent campers but always thought maybe a caravan one day. All the best Pete 👍⛺️
Thanks for the video, I've been thinking of getting one and this video was helpful. I enjoyed your other videos with the Eriba and your family seem to be getting good use and enjoyment from yours, Good luck with it in the future.
Would you recommend fixed bed or convertible in the back? It is the one thing I can’t decide on. I keep thinking it would be nice to be able to entertain guests for dinner or drinks when it is just me or me and my boyfriend. And just make the smaller dinette into a bed on those occasions. But then I loose the storage area. When I got the kids with me it would be good to have the storage are for a extra cooler for food etc.
There's pros and cons. Fixed bed storage looks better but you can't put too much on the back end or it becomes dangerous to tow. Fixed bed are more comfy. We need Duvlay mattress toppers on ours, as it's the rear dinette model and doesn't have as much support. I work from it sometimes and sleep at the front and use the back table for the iMac. If you are away and have visitors, you have more seats. In summer or if you have an awning or residence you could all sit there. Mostly, we leave the rear bed set up anyway, so we don't have to keep making the bed up. For us, we decided on rear dinette, as it gave us the flexibility and 2 x seating places. We used to watch tele at the back and let our Son have his own space at the front, bedding all kept in the car.
How many in board water tanks did you go for and what do you consider the advantages despite the room they take up versus just having the water but excellent demonstration of your eriba . Neales DIY fixed bed conversation is steering me to the gt 530 👍
We have one 30 litre tank which comes with the GT pack and is located under the front near side seat. The toilet flush has a separate tank. We don’t consider that the tanks take any room though.
On our 320…2022 model we’ve got a rectangular grey flap to plug in our water pump…so i dont understand yours..where did you get your water pump ? (4,32)
That's just a Whale pump. There are various types with different electrical connector types. They can be bought from Amazon, or from any Caravan Dealer.

Thank you.
Thank you for the tour, its nice to get a normal view on the caravan. I have just bought one and look forward to many years touring round the UK.
It is a pleasure. I think you will soon venture abroad too, as we are doing this year. Enjoy.

It’s all year round for us and thanks for the good wishes. We will have another video out tomorrow and a Scotland trip at the beginning of April.
Thanks for the information 👍

What extra accessories did you go for for cooking outside in the canopy area ? TIA
We have a slow cooker, George Forman and we take the microwave. We will show our set up on our next video.
Very interesting
Thanks Frances.
Is yours the Troll 540 GT?
530 GT

Surprised to hear you call it a small German ‘camper’ van.
Probably should be called a mini caravan, but it does have camper van features, such as the pop top and compact sizing.

Not sure if you mean the internal water pump, which comes with the Eriba, or the water pump, which submerges into the Aquaroll.
@@whereveraway the one going into the aquaroll..
That's just a Whale pump. There are various types with different electrical connector types. They can be bought from Amazon, or from any Caravan Dealer.
@@whereveraway thankslot mine dosent look like yours and its gone low pressure..
a proper vlogging camera may be a better option than a phone upgrade :)
If you can recommend a good one we would probably go with it.
