Hi All,
Shirley & John here,after camping in Belgium Holland and France we decided enough was enough and decided to start looking around for a van.On a campsite near Amsterdam there were two Eriba vans we fell in love immediately.We started our search and were lucky enough to find a troll 530 GT so off down to my local garage to have a towbar fixed on my Renault traffic van.Off we went on Thursday morning to pick the van up from a very kind man from Bridgewater,He hitched the van up for us and we set off back home to Hereford this being the first time I've ever towed a van everything went well and Rita as she is now known lives in our garage.
We have had a weekend away so far and can't wait to start exploring when the sites open.
Looking forward to meet all you very friendly folk out there.
This is a fantastic informative web site we hope to be with you for a long time thank you for setting it up.
Regards Dockmur

Hi Shirley and John. Welcome to Eribafolk. There are many on here including we two with a similar story to yours. You can't fail to fall for these quirky vans, can you? You must be itching to get out there with your new purchase.
We would love to see a few photos when you have a chance. Look forward to hearing from you and perhaps meeting up one day.
R and A

Hi All,
This is our tow vehicle at the moment we also have a 1974 3.0 litre V8 soft top Stag do you think this would do the job ?

Forgot to tell you she is a 2004 530 Troll.

Hi. yes, there is a friend of this forum who tows a nearly new Troll with a Stag and she has said previously that it handles it well.
