phantom Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Hi - i'm looking to buy our first awning and fancy a Khyam. do you own a coachbuilt and a Khyam Excelsior Motordome awning? How do you find it - what are the pros and cons? Is it tall enough for a coachbuilt like a Elddis Autoquest? Is it bright enough inside like a caravan awning? Want to get it right especially as they are expensive. Do you want to sell yours? Thanks for the help Phantom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GJH Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 phantom - 2008-04-05 9:18 AM Hi - i'm looking to buy our first awning and fancy a Khyam. do you own a coachbuilt and a Khyam Excelsior Motordome awning? Is it tall enough for a coachbuilt like a Elddis Autoquest? Yes and Yes - we have an Autoquest 100 with J rail on the side with the caravan door. phantom - 2008-04-05 9:18 AM How do you find it - what are the pros and cons? Very easy to erect and take down. Unless it is very windy I can erect it and take it down on my own if need be. Even if packed away wet in its bag it is easy to re-erect and dry when we get home. It's brilliant with a relatively small van like ours to give us extra space when we are on site for several days as we often are at ECWS musters. I bought some bungee straps to use between the bit that fits to the J rail and the ground to stop it coming loose in high winds - but that's the only con I can think of. phantom - 2008-04-05 9:18 AM Is it bright enough inside like a caravan awning? Yes. Window covers can be rolled up to let in more daylight. phantom - 2008-04-05 9:18 AM Want to get it right especially as they are expensive. Do you want to sell yours? They are expensive compared to some others but do you get as much for your money with other makes and are they as easy to handle? We bought ours after seeing one which friends have - they have since sold their motorhome and bought a caravan but kept the Khyam awning for use with the caravan because they like it so much. We certainly wouldn't sell ours - much too useful. Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JudgeMental Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 I have one and may be willing to sell. It was hardly used with old van and not at all with new one - I sent you a PM a few days ago..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
