WHEN it comes to swapping caravans, an Adelaide couple holds the Adria
trifecta!
Eric and Adrianna Kroon from Somerton Park have just taken delivery of
their third new European-built caravan in a little over 16 months.
They bought their first Adria caravan, an Altea 432PX, in 2010 and then
traded up to a 512PU at the Adelaide Show in February this year.
And at the recent Adelaide Mini Show Eric decided to trade in their late
model caravan on a new Adora 612DP, taking delivery last month from local
dealership Dave Benson Caravans.
"I had a Subaru Tribeca with a towing capacity of 2000kg which limits what
I'm able to tow," Eric explained.
"We started off with the Adora 432PX but soon found we really needed a bit
more space, so this prompted us to trade up to a 512PU with the island
bed.
"This was great but whilst visiting the recent Adelaide Mini Show we saw
the new Adora 612DP with a lot more space and not much extra weight (ATM
of 1700kgs) which meant I didn't have to change my vehicle.
"So we did the deal, and now the Adora gives us all the space we need.
What more can you ask for?"
Maybe a new tow vehicle? The Kroons have now swapped their Tribeca tug for
a second-hand Mercedes ML 320 CDI, but a new model is expected to be
released next year ... and no doubt Eric could be on the swap again.
