This is representative of European Weight Trailer Caravans, which are about 1/3 lighter than

Antipodean, and North American Trailer Caravans. Don't forget that petrol, and diesel is so much more expensive in Europe.

And the UK is perhaps the most expensive in the EU for fuel.

That is why the English caravans are built in a different way. Super strong, but very light.

There has been a big resurgence of sales in the UK of Caravans since February last year.

So many more folk are staying on the Island, because of the weakness of Sterling versus the Euro.

Besides it's so much more fun!.
