Oh I forgot to mention the Target 5.70 was the family holiday machine for years, about 20 - 15 years ago and was origionaly dragged by a 1985 (B) reg Patrol 3.3 which had bull bars on the front and back (the only car I have seen with rear bull bars)

hi r3m,

6 berths with rear 4 berth 'bunk room' include swift conqueror 650 and certainly
a lunar, ask davemud.

alternatively there are those 6ers with rear baths, fixed bunks to offside and a
dinette with optional bunk above to near side. which is a neat design but kitchen
is quite small though does have second worktop over firdge opposite.

well got it home tonight, feels quite light for unladen of 1366 or so, certainly 4 of
us pulled into garden nose first seemingly more easily than the my dads sprite of
1000kg gross! and looking at it side on not even that much longer, maybe 5 feet
or so. Bit wider though may need some better mirrors but theres a great view thru
the van as well.

thanks mate, had already bought clamp and lock nuts, put them on as soon as legs down.
the coupling is like a commercial 50mm, really HD, integral lock and a ball that swings up to
fill coupling. Taken jockey wheel off and set factory alarm. Padlocked the garden gate.

So fingers crossed, after that its insured wont let it rule my life.

weve got a post its locked to via the ball as well. still got ours so all is well

oh well, commited to a beautiful abbey spectrum 520 t/a 99my.
twin dinette layout, hoping that is gvw of 1660kg will be ok for
the t2. should be around 85%, doesnt appear to have a stabilizer
hitch so will see how get on and taking alko off lunar, more so can
trade for a winterhoff type if need be.

going to be a cheap skate and try to mod lunar's awning as a giant
porch for my new tupperware stately home. lol. if not will flog and
get one of these curved light weight jobs.

Ah what a wise choice!! Bought our 98 Spectrum 620 last sept and pleased so far, tows very well even without stabiliser, same size as your 520 and similar layout too... L shaped lounge at front that makes into huge double then 4 bunks at the back or 2 big singles with a nice sliding door to shut the little darlings away at night.
Awning size is huge... 1065cm and the one we bought weighs 65kg all in.... ouch!! Lots of space when up though.... not had any major problems with weight although needed 4wd when collecting from the farm where it lives this morning in the rather slippery snow!!
Enjoy.....
