Anything German !EdBrumby said:, but is there a manufacturer who can build to a better standard?

Don't think you have been lucky. We have had the Autosleeper Nuevo for nearly four years and our experience of autosleepers is very positive. We did have a leakage problem from the heiki but it was fixed without any hassle from A/S. Apparently some experimenting with different sealant. Had a Harmony from Autosleepers prior to the Nuevo and also no problems. These were both bought new. This Nuevo presumably was bought used and looks as though it has had some problems particularly the wheels. Looks as though the dealer has some questions to be answered!!breakaleg1 said:Hi Ed,
I have a auto-sleeper Lancashire, same van as yours only a dealer special, but a two berth.
agree with the creasing, but i don't think that hinge is an auto-sleeper original, far to thick.
the complete sink unit was replace under warranty at auto-sleepers, as there was a crack where the screws seemed to have been overtightened.
the wheels on your van, look like they are not the originals (did you buy your van new or used)?
my experience of auto-sleeper (after four of there vans) is excellent, even when our last van was ten years old, still received good service.
but perhaps i have been lucky.

I have only had experience with burstner so far but, it has turned out to be a bit of stinker with a faults list as long as your arm 8O I'm going to get on the phone to my dealer on Monday for something else that has cropped up in the last week. :?Waggy said:My experience is limited to Burstner and Autosleeper but in my view the Autosleeper is the clear winner.
I have the same model Nuevo 2008 ES and have had no problems at all 8)
I have not been able to access the photos but it does sound as if it is down to the dealer. Having said that it seems clear that you can get bad examples from any manufacturer and the Germans are certainly no exception
You have PMEdBrumby said:I forgot to say that the van was bought from Perthshire caravans and was sold as new. There was only about 8 miles on the clock. I am told that Autosleeper have put the old Nuevo body on to the new Peugot Boxer van chassis which is wider than the old Boxer. I really need to find someone with a 2008 Nuevo. I have looked at the old Nuevos and they have far greater wheel clearances. It would be great if someone with a 2008 model would come on line and I could compare all these items. My letter and photos will go to Perthshire caravans and Autosleeper on Monday
