Eriba Ocean Drive

Eriba Ocean Drive FAMILIA? A chap on Facebook had just bought one from Leisure First.

But, hold the bus. He hasn't said it's an Ocean Drive, he's just traded his Puck L in for a Familia which happens to be Blue and white.

Someone's been out with the spray gun and repainted a host of Eribas either red or white and renamed them Rochachilli or Ocean Breeze.

Here are some examples.

There's a wealth of them on today's pages :- https://www.leisurefirst.com/eriba-appro...Zcse3Y5MKKJFLY8

On the subject of the Ocean Drive, here are some videos of them.

Well that’s just going to confuse me. I can’t identify models on the road and have been confident that it’s a Troll (Rockabilly or Ocean Drive), now that won’t be the case 😲🤔

Good spot Roger, I would assume the interiors will still be the standard wood finish rather than the white/red/blue


When I go on holiday I like to pop my top!

Yes John. Interiors are bog standard. The Leisure First page at the moment shows a number of photos for each but will be liable to change as life goes on.

They look to be finished to a high standard externally. I wonder if they are painted or wrapped?

I heard from a reliable source a few weeks ago that the Rockabilly and Ocean Drive are being discontinued and I also heard from two people yesterday who had been told the same so this repainting the exterior of standard vans is a reaction to that as both models were very popular.

From these photos whoever has done them seems to have done a good job. From a distance they look attractive

Update. As Kam said, they are vinyl wrapped by FL (AL).

Cheers Roger

I wonder if they offer that service to customers for their existing ‘vans?

It seems a good sales idea.

I wonder how much it costs and how long lasting or easily danaged the vinyl cover would be

I'm sure the dealer did not wrap them personally. There are loads of car wrapping places everywhere. They would use one of them.

Indeed.

I'd imagine wrapping half a slab-sided caravan would be a doddle for blokes used to working on cars.

Maybe with winter approaching they’ll add a couple of more models.
I suggest the Chilli Billy and the Breezi Drive. 😂

Call me an old cynic, but I do wonder what some of the wraps might be hiding.

Bear in mind a car wrap only lasts for 3 to 5 years according to Google. Long enough to get past the warranty 😁
