Product Description

Product Description

First published in 1993 and having sold over 75,000 copies, this fourth edition of the "Caravan Manual" contains completely revised text and many new illustrations. As well as guidance on maintaining older caravans, it includes details about the very latest models. There's new information on caravan weights, the use of public weighbridges, and related legal issues, along with electronic and computerised wiring systems in cars. There are major updates to the chapters on chassis, running gear, body construction, gas and all electrical details. This essential manual describes all the vital maintenance tasks and repair work that keeps a caravan in tip-top condition.

We recently purchased a caravan, and while buying accessories for it, we came across this book, it has been invaluable for showing us how all the different things work, and what goes where. It stays with us wherever we go. Absolutely brilliant.

Bought the book as a total van novice. Totally impressed. Descriptions and photos are clear, advice spot-on. The best investment in caring for your van that you will make!

Format:Hardcover
We've been caravanning for over 10 years, & did buy a caravan book (but not Haynes) when we got our first caravan, but could never find the advice we needed in it. We have just bought a more recent caravan, so needed to know more about the water & heating systems, as they were different to those in our previous caravan.We ordered this Haynes manual from Amazon, & are extremely impressed with the detailed information it gives on virtually everything you can think of .We really wish we'd bought a Haynes manual before now, as it would have saved us a lot of time in the past! We can highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to do their own running repairs.
