Hi Popey and welcome to the forum. We hope you'll enjoy your visits.
Your Puck sounds lovely. Is it your first adventure into caravanning? Love to see a few photos.

Wheel Clamps. The best wheel clamps are normally quite heavy and some are too heavy for touring. We have opted for a "Stoplock" which is easy to fit, should adjust down to the Puck size wheel and is not too heavy to carry about with you. Others on the forum have different preferences. Here's a link to what they say.

There are several Milenco Clamps in their range if you want something a little heavier
Insurers like a hitchlock as well as a clamp.

That's the one we use.

It's strong and has the advantage of going on and coming off the van in seconds, unlike some clamps that are very fiddly and time-consuming to use.

We bought a SAS wheelclamp, works fine. Make sure it fits your wheel size (ours are 10inch) and there are types for alloy and steel wheels so check the type. Also some insurance companies specify different standards, so make sure what they ask for and find out if the clamp you are after complies. We actually got ours on eBay, but it's like new. They seem to come up fairly often second-hand if you're prepared to wait a while.

You will probably find that a Hitchlock is a must have insurance requirement,
closely followed by a wheel clamp.
