Hi, we’ve just bought our first ever caravan, a 2012 530 from Leisure First in fetching gold and white colour scheme. Picking it up in a couple of days. We’re a family of three who do a lot of weekends away each year and finally got tired of camping so this should seem like a huge upgrade to us coming from a tent. We’ll be using it pretty much exclusively off grid as we’re usually just in a field. Seems like lots of useful info here so thought I’d join up. No real plans as yet, but would probably like to install some USB ports to make charging easier, although we already have myriad power banks so it’s not urgent.

Hi GSB and welcome to Eribafolk

The 530 is a popular.model and the Yellow Gold colour would have been wrapped by Leisure First, the original colour probably all white.

Leisure First have been around for many years and they have recently started to add colour to their vans to match some of the dual colour schemes of more recently manufactured vans.

I'm sure you'll have years of pleasure from your van as we are still having with our 1999 530 bought from LF in 2010.

Aha didn’t realise it was a wrap. Explains why I couldn’t find any info about older ‘gold edition’ models! I don’t really mind though, the finish is good enough I couldn’t tell, and while the spec is reasonably basic it’s a good price, and the important bits like the chassis are in great condition.

I wouldn't worry if it is a wrap, that's what the new Hymer models are (I think ).
Be worth confirming it though and checking the guarantee.
