Chevrolet Captiva towing

If you have a caravan you will be interested to know that Chevrolet has developed a new guide to safe caravanning in conjunction with the NCC (National Caravanning Council), the Camping and Caravanning Club and Elddis Caravans.

There are around half a million caravanning enthusiasts in the UK and with the forthcoming June Bank Holiday weekend, many caravans will be taking to UK roads for a break or even for overseas holidays in France, Spain, etc.

The Chevrolet car range includes the Captiva SUV as a suitable vehicle for towing caravans with its increased towing capacity and hence their interest in ensuring caravanners have a safe journey.

Copies of the Chevrolet Safe Caravanning Guide are available at all local Chevrolet dealers or you can get one off the Chevrolet website @ www.chevrolet.co.uk

Volkswagen Calilfornia

One lucky GMTV viewer entered a competition to win a Volkswagen California in conjunction with the Camping and Caravanning Club. Paula Harris is now the proud owner of this great campervan and is already planning her trips around the UK, with Cornwall and South Wales on the agenda. The prize vehicle is fitted with a roll-out side awning, a tailgate bike rack for up to four bikes and optional alloy wheels.

The Volkswagen California is designed to be compact on the road, yet transforms into a real home with its own fridge, cooker, sink, two double beds and an electrically operated pop-up roof. As part of the prize, Paula also wins an annual membership to the Camping and Caravanning Club, giving her access to 110 sites across the UK.

Simon Elliott, Director, Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, said,”Paula must be the luckiest camper in the world to win such an exciting prize from her first competition entry. We know she will thoroughly enjoy the California’s high quality, and great design, and get a friendly welcome from the huge community of Volkswagen campers”.
