Hi Rupert.

I'm asking about a Puck on our Facebook page which is a couple of hours up country from you. It's a 1990 model and he's owned it for a couple of years now. He is up-sizing. He has done some work on the underside of it but he seems genuine enough. He posts about his travels with his Puck regulalry.

He's asking for £4800 for it (a bit low in my opinion). I can find out more if you're interested.

Is the Puck the right one for you or could you perhaps consider a Puck L? it's a tad longer and is very roomy.

Hi Randa,

Thank you so much for your help and information.

I think the Puck L would be ideal. I've tried to find out on the Internet about the shipping length, are they similar or is the L much longer?

Many thanks,

Rupert

According to a 2008 brochure I have the overall length of the Puck 120 is 425 cm, the PuckL is 475 cm.

To give you a comparison Rupert, there follows a link to:-

a 1996 Puck L:- https://www.eribacaravansales.co.uk/erib...-l-1996-sold-2/

And a 1996 Puck:- https://www.eribacaravansales.co.uk/eriba-puck-1996-sold-3/

Alas both are sold.

Hi Randa, thank you that is really useful. We are off on Sunday to have a look at a Puck L 225 GT. We have actually put a deposit down, so hopefully all is good. Is there anything particular to look out for?
Thanks again,
Rupert

The biggest issue with all Eribas is the bottom perimeter rail made from 1" x 1" box section. It's mentioned recently on another thread. Also use your nose to detect if there's any dampness on board. Look behind curtains and inside locker boxes. Check for bouncy floor.

Get them to start the fridge and cooker for you. I presume they'll have a gas bottle. Check the pop top and the fabric condition. The age of the tyres? They should be less than 5 years old.

Are you buying it privately or from a Dealer? If a dealer, who are they?.

It is a private seller. Only a couple of hours away. Thank you for the information and check list, that is so useful.
Thank you so much for all your help.

Is the seller an Eribafolk member?
They obviously don't have to be but most Eriba owners are very attached to their vans even if they are having to sell them. There is often a good reason.

Hi Randa,
I have messaged the person on the forum and via Gumtree. I got a message back via gumtree, that it was still available but no other replies to my messages. The strange thing is, I think it is that Puck we are going to see tomorrow, different location and quite a bit more money.

Strange. If it is then it's a bit naughty of the seller.

Hi. Thanks for the welcome.

I’m not an owner yet but on the verge of committing to a lovely Puck L I’ve seen.

I’m certain to be picking your brains and experience with probably very silly questions. Apologies in advance.
