Hello everyone. Entering my second day of being an Eriba owner. Bought a '74 Familia which no doubt one or two of you may have seen on ebay recently.
Utterly infatuated with it. Drove from the Midlands to Cornwall to have a look, stopped for an hour, hitched it up and drove home.
It appears to be quite original as far as I can tell, though I'm on a steep learning curve. It's not my first old caravan as I'm currently finishing the spruce up to a '58 Car Cruiser that I've had for 20 years in readiness to sell, and I had a teardrop before that.
Nice to be here and find you all.
Be prepared for endless newbie questions!

Ah...excellent. This is what I'm here for! Is there anything to look out for that might confirm the year?
There is a tag on the drawbar that says 1972 though that could simply be when the chassis was made, I guess.

Thanks everyone for the kind welcome.

Hi Arti and welcome to the forum.

That looks to be a really characterful van. I'm sure that it will give you lots of fun in getting everything how you want it. Enjoy

Hi and
Re age...you will have a plate somewhere, usually by door with a number on it...if 1974 could be around the 241400 to about 242500. I have a list..as you do!, let me know and will add it to it.

Regards Chris and Keith

Excellent, thank you. May be tomorrow as it's bucketing down at the moment!

Great van! to the forum!
