JohnE, who because of his job as a Caravan Engineer, clambers under and around more Eribas than the rest of us have had hot dinners, has just purchased one so that in itself speaks volumes.

that most of us originally fell in love with the whole idea of owning such a quirky piece of retro engineering and let our hearts rule our heads
Nail on head enough said!

...should we also consider the Feeling 425?
We bought our Feeling 425 from The Netherlands last November after owning a Troll 552 then a 540 the last 4 or 5 years. The decision to change was made after calling in to Tebay for a mooch round during a wet weekend at Hawes and we were really impressed by the internal space, the fixed bed and the overall build quality.
It took us almost 6 months to track one down (at the right price!) as they're quite rare in the UK, but eventually we spotted a bargain in The Netherlands - the dealer was retiring and the 425 was the last one in the shop.
My only gripe is the Al-Ko 'M' Chassis which is very tight on ground clearance. This isn't a problem if you don't need a motor mover, but as we did need one (our drive is awkward to reverse onto and the arrival home with the caravan was always marked with the odour of slipping clutch) we bit the bullet and fitted the Al-Ko Mammut. This fits between the chassis rails as opposed to being clamped underneath, avoiding a further 60mm reduction in ground clearance.
Although the Feeling is a little wider than the Touring range, and isn't at all 'pointy' at the front, it's very stable on the road and I think it tows just as well.
And it's still an Eriba
