Wow.........................! Brave or foolish - not sure which

Defo not - I am wary of even taking our Skoda Karoq into these things. Perhaps I need to be less risk averse.

Paragrah 11.1.3 of the handbook states:

Never clean the vehicle in the car wash. Water can penetrate the refrigerator grills, the waste gas vent or the forced ventilations. The vehicle could be damaged

Certainly not! Imagine what it will do to the windows?

I wouldn't put my car through one of these never mind the Eriba.

I wonder if this guy is just taking the Micky and the photo is just a set up....................................?

How to murder you lovely caravan!
As others have said, I wouldn't take a car through one of those shredders, let alone our little darling.
I won't even take my works van through them, will always wash by hand.

A paint spray shop once showed me my company car under their proper lights. Stevie Wonder could have seen the scratches from a car wash brush. The spray shop was next door to my house so they kindly buffed up the paintwork and the car looked several shades cleaner, was smooth and shiny. Similarly but nothing to do with car wash brushes, I once took my caravan to a repair shop way out in the country on a farm. There was a shiny new old model Eccles. I remarked that I didn't think that Eccles still made that model of caravan and they laughed. They said it is an original 1970something, all they had done was to machine polish it. They explained that if you get a polishing machine (around £120) and some mildly abrasive polish you too can achieve that result. I did, and after it was properly polished the paint surface was as smooth as running my hand over ice. A good wax polish after that made it look better than new.
