Timber vs Aluminium frame, it is really a matter of preference as they both have their benifits and drawbacks, me I am a timber person, I have found in an accident the timber gives and restricts the damage to a smaller area, I had a friend with a ally frame who had a small shunt and the whole frame moved and they had to write off the van and as it was a few years old he lost money

I can suggest you have a look at Adventure caravans as Loganhome. near the Hyperdome, I was treated well there and am more than happy with our Adventure branded van

Was a toss up but we got the Adventure (by Vanguard) as it was the layout and size we liked and we needed one off the lot as we live in it full time, we are very happy with it have had it seven months now

My brother inlaw and his wife just purchased a spinafex and it looks awsum. We have a roma and it's also great it really comes down to. Do you like it? See what reports you have on them then. My other brother in law upgraded his coromal after just 2 trips, so he is happy with coromal. We are happy with Roma 22ft semi off road elegance. We had a bad run with sales people in perth who no longer sell Roma and where liars as well as car sales men of the worst kind.

Yep! Google often turns up info that's not posted on vanning forums.
Posting good reviews is easy and puts a smile on the manufacters and dealers faces, while most forum members are loath to post negative reviews for fear of possible litigation.
