Hi everyone.
Im a new member.
Surfing the net one day looking at motor homes, when I came across Eriba caravan video. That’s when the idea popped into my head. I could get a 320/420 and be able to get to some off beat cl sites and be able to put the van down the side of the house when not in use and I won’t have extra vehicle running costs. So the research starts now and I will looking at all the info on this forum and will be asking questions when I start to look at various models.

Gnomey 👍

Hi Gnomey and welcome to Eribafolk

Any questions, please ask. I think your idea is a great one but I would say that anyway. The beauty of an Eriba is that once you are parked up on a CL or whatever you have the freedom of exploring in your tow car.

That's the beauty of any caravan but the Eriba is very special because it falls into the "classic" list as would a VW Bus.

When you compare the living space in an Eriba then it's not that different to your average size motor home. The two models you are thinking about are very popular so you'll need to keep an eye open to find one. Also don't forget that Eribas have been around since the late 50s and there are many middle aged ones still going strong so you don't have to think "new".

Hi Gnomey welcome to the forum and good luck in finding your Eriba.
We’ve had our Eriba almost a year ours is a Puck the smallest model and perfect for us mostly because it fits on our back garden. Just now we’re sitting in there drinking tea.
