Reader wins Apple iPad in our Caravan Times NEC show competition

Keen caravanner (and new Caravan Times member) Sally Mottram is the winner of our NEC show prize draw

During last month’s International Caravan and Motorhome Show at the NEC in Birmingham, the Caravan Review Database saw an unprecedented surge in popularity as vistors flocked to our stand to give feedback on their caravan. We’d like to say a huge thank you to everyone who submitted a review of their caravan at the 2010 Show.

We are grateful for the exceptional response from show goers who told us about their caravan ownership experiences. And so at this year’s show we held a prize draw for one lucky entry to win an Apple iPad.

To enter the prize draw, caravanners were encouraged to give their tourers a rating out of five – and write a short review to advise future owners about any potential problems.

As a result the Caravan Review Database now covers the full range of caravan manufacturers – from big hitters Bailey Caravans and Swift Caravans to specialist European models from Geist and Eriba.

Prize draw winner

We are pleased to announce the winner, selected at random from the hundreds of reviews per day we received is Sally Mottram from Surrey.

“I’m absolutely delighted, my children couldn’t believe it when I told them, we’re all so excited!” she told Caravan Times.

Sally’s love of camping and caravanning began twenty years ago after becoming widowed while her children were still young. Every summer Sally would pack up the family and set off for five weeks of camping fun. And after swapping canvas for a caravan fourteen years ago, she still spends up to 8 weeks of the years caravanning.

“We have had many adventures of caravanning and I just love it!” she added.

As a member of the Christian Caravan and Camping Fellowship, Sally enjoys attending rallies all over the country in her ABI Marauder. Full of praise for her “faithful Marauder” which has served her for nearly ten years, she is now drawing on the help of Caravan Times to find a new 4-berth caravan.
