Bought brand new 2011, found scrached panels, badly fixed trims, this was put right under warrantly. Think this was a friday afternoon caravan, quality control was terrible. Front trim on outside of van developed a star like crack from the inside ie not a stone chip, this had to be put right, on the third outing, the blown air central heating would only let heat out on full (number 9) and a smell of burning then occurred. There were two leaks under the sink on this holiday, one in the bathroom and one in the kitchen. While travelling the drawer runner under the sink parted company, it was held by two small screws. The material on the walls near the fixed rear bed on the overlap portions is lifting and needs re sticking, this is also happening in the bathroom. There is no stoppers on the bottom rail of the curtain in the front window which means reattaching curtains after the van has been moved. Now fixed with blu tack!!.The front window seal has gone already with condensation between the panels. We liked the quality look of the van but it is let down by poor finishes, the endless set of repairs we have had to have done has led us to get rid before anything else goes wrong. I wrote to Eldiss to complain about the standard of the new van and never bothered to reply. Steer clear of this van, it may have been just ours that slipped through quality control but I doubt it. Bad service from Eldiss all round. Lost £6000 on this van
