smilesmilesmile I am feeling happy ,as i have designed and built a caravan cover for the van over the last couple of months .Today ,i had the power connected ,to keep the batteries charged . I have to reverse down the drive and do a 120degree turn in order to park it up but that is no problem as i have room for a wide turning circle .biggrinbiggrinbiggrincaravan car port.JPGcarport 2.JPGcarport 3.JPG

That's a beautiful spot you've got there. Love the height of your caravan shed too. Plenty of room if you buy a high motorhome in the future.

I'd be putting either roll down side sheets, end covering
or one fixed from prevailing weather side.

My ute sits in carport nowadays and gets really dirty from wind
and it's corresponding airborn crap going through.
depositing the crap on Ute.

Keeps sun off, but NOT the dirt I'm afraid.
Looks good though.
Even half sides would make a difference.

 

PS.

Those a good van too I nearly bought one over my last Roadstar.

but I prefer a front bed with rear door and lounge. central shower\toilet unit.

Less wasted space.

Pity they couldn't go back to lift up beds again.

retrieve nearly half the interior again.
