The Eriba 820
I thought, with my recent posts on the future of caravanning it was only fair to look at Hymer’s latest addition to the Eriba Touring range and particularly at the eco-credentials of the 820. There is no doubt that this latest addition is not going to attract those who are working on a budget and …
