dreamywings Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Hi, I purchased my first caravan on Monday, its a Mardon Saffron 410 4 berth. Approx 1992. It does need some TLC but I just wondered it anyone else had one as ive been doing searches and cant find anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doosan Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 (edited) to the Forum. I don't know anything about this van. The outside looks like it needs a visit from Tourshine a member on this Forum who specialises in bringing the outside of your pride and joy back to showroom condition. http://www. tourershine. co. uk/ Edited September 10, 2014 by doosan Bailey Pageant Series 6 Champagne 2007 Tow Car Toyota Rav4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wigelywoo Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 When you're ready to sleep in the van. Might I suggest, if you're going to sleep across the van, you put the small cushions, backrests, in the middle and the knee bolsters top and bottom of bed. It makes it flat in the middle. If you wash the outside of the caravan with Fenwicks caravan cleaner, following instructions on the label, You will be pleasantly surprised. Do dot wash it with household detergents, most contain salt, which rots the alluminium Enjoy your new van and Lunar Zenith Citroen C5 2. 2 HDI Citroen Picasso 1. 6 HDI. , Vauxhall Vectra Design 150 bhp Soon to be, 2014 Sprite Major 4 sr.

WispMan Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 and there are several of our members who have done up old vans. A lady called Mechs seems to be an expert at it so you will find good advice here.

IainM1970 Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 The Saffron was the last throw of the dice for Mardon, dating from around 92 as you say. Sadly they went to the wall after that, shame as they tended to offer something a little different. Something makes me think that someone produced a Mardon clone for a short time, but can't quite recall what the story was! 2018 Swift Elegance 580 towed by a 2018 Volvo XC60 D5 Power Pulse R Design Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
