Lozzyf Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 I'm agog at the stuff that goes missing. But to actually SWAP stuff for broken things !!!!!. . . Well I'm speechless to say the least . . Is this a common thing? ( I'm new to caravanning and prob a bit wet behind the ears. . Prime target for the sneaky beggars!!) What's the basic rules then ? What do others chain, lock up? And what with?. . . .

What do others chain, lock up? And what with?. . . . ( BIG SIGH) I chain up anything of value. Honestly. I take a couple of long 10m plastic covered wire ropes and I run the rope through everything, even the water containers. I have heard on other sites of people going around at night swapping faulty water containers and filler caps for others. .. 1 Quote An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind.

dreadly Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 (edited) I'm on it now scrolling through eBay!!! I think I used these --> http://www. ebay. co. uk/itm/Onguard-Akita-Extra-Long-Lock-Extender-Anti-Theft-Coil-Cable-Bike-Cycle-Security-/311275236426?var=&hash=item4879732c4a I used reasonably cheap combination locks that everyone in the family knows the code for. .. That way no issues with lost keys. They don't need to be super secure, it's just a case of making your stuff less attractive that the next caravan Edited September 29, 2015 by dreadly 2 Quote An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind.

Tuningdrew Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 These are a very expensive item, a friend of ours replaced the fridge in his Lunar Clubman last year, nearly £600. Only way in and out was through the front window which would explain the damage there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
