@@AussieAliner it sure did. My van is quite old so I’ve had to repair a few things to get it ready for my first trip next month. It was missing the two slide bolts that help hold up the side walls. I was racking my brain trying to figure out what was there and now I know. I’m off to Bunnings to buy and install two new ones. Thanks again. RUclips to the rescue.
Brilliant and very clear and detailed wander through the Van. Well done. I was thinking of getting one. Now I'm definitely getting one. Thanks again. C
Thanks for showing some of the wiring . I bought a 2010 same version you have . It has had a 12 volt fire and melt down I think the old water heater may have started it. I need to gut most of the wiring and start again. Any thought on wiring it would be very welcome. Regards, Nick.
Thanks for your comment, I have a block diagram of an Australian made Aliner Electrical setup if you want to give me your email address, it is fairly basic though.
We go camping in tent, mainly caravan packs 7 months a year, seen An Avan last week next to us and looked really good. Are they easy to manoeuvre without a car? As can 2 people push it? Thanks
Hi Rob, I have just bought my 1st van - 2010 cruiseliner. Could you tell me the brand and size of the mobile solar panels leaning up against your van in the video. I'm going off grid for 2 weeks and would like to run my microwave, fan and powerpoints (for charging electrics) off of mobile solar panels. Would what you have cope with that? Fridge can run off the two 4kg gas cylinders. Thanks Caroline
Hi Caroline, My Solar Panel is only a cheap no name Chinese 140 Watt solar panel that was part of the deal when i bought the Avan. It is only good for topping up the 12 volt battery for small electrics like LED lights etc. If you want to run a microwave you need at least 10 times more solar +Lithium battery +inverter +big dollars - sorry but we don't usually do off grid camping so can't give you too much more info
Hi Rob H, Good to see your trailer .Looks like a shiny new one with great features.When are you getting out and traveling? I have a 1999 Aliner I restored. I left it at a specialist workshop in Victoria to have a gas heater installed and now the border is closed. I am in NSW and was hoping to take my Aliner to Tasmania . But you cant get into Tasmania especially from Victoria.and I don't want to go to Victoria for obvious reasons. Don't know when I will see my aliner again . Its in storage which is costing me. Maybe I should sell it but have got it well fitted and was hoping to enjoy some travels . Drat this covid. Stay safe!
We have had it for 5 years, have looked after it- keeping it in the shed also helps. We have just been on a trip to Western QLD, i have video of a lot of empty caravan parks which i plan to post in the next few weeks. I also have a leaky hot water system that i am trying to fix. Covid will pass eventually, Thx for your comments!
Hey, I'm in North east Victoria, would be happy to store it for you if you were to let me use it in the meantime. Would be towed with my Ford Mondeo (no off road). Cheers.
@@AussieAliner thanks I know in some situations with women solo travelers some places become unsafe and hooking it up quickly is easy but the take down as well is problematic.
You didn't show or mention two of the great features you get there that our A-frames don't have here in the States. First, the galvanized frame (or maybe even better, aluminum) and second, the pop-out bubble windows. Sometimes we just cheep out over here. Thanks for the video.
I have towed it with a 2014 Hyundai Ix35 2.0 litre but i now have a 2021 Mazda Cx5 GT turbo 2.5 litre. Both cars tow it well but the Cx5 has a bit more power.
@@AussieAliner thanks, we have a bit bigger Avan at the moment we use the Toyota work mate, but it’s getting on a bit so looking for something I can use as well as tow the van, I have a suberu forester so don’t want much bigger than that if I can.
Great video, love it, thank you, I learnt more than when I went to the caravan dealers!
I enjoyed that and you caught a lot of great detail close up. Thanks!
Great video, thank you so much for taking the time to produce this video.
I recently bought a Avan Sportliner. As I'm an single grandmother and this was extremely helpful. Thank you for posting.
Thank you for your comment. I am glad it helped.

Thanks for your comment. Did u see part's 2 and 3?
You will love it
thank you for taking the time out to show us how this works, much appreciated. Good music also
i think the music is distracting..but okay, i turned off the volume ..not everybody has the same taste so better not to have it ..he'll learn
Cool
Great video thanks for all the detail
Wow, I wish the Aliners made here in the USA were of similar quality. The Aussie build is of much better quality!
Not really
Nice camper and video
That's quite the deluxe package!
AC, hot water in a 3 berth!
Wow - Who could have thought such things available in the 20th Century!
Beautiful caravan. Is there a representative office in Europe?

I found your email
Picking my new AVan Aliner up tomorrow. No thanks to Covid. Had quite a lengthy wait but finally here
That's great! Good luck! How long did you have to wait?
Over 9 months but no use getting upset. Not the suppliers fault
what did it cost you roughly i'd love to know please. :)

Great set up, nicely made rig…
Only thing that’s missing is a bathroom.
We just take a shovel with us
@@AussieAliner Of course, how foolish of me! LOL!
Does anybody know what make na type the air compressor is
If you are talking about the air compressor i am using to pump up the tyres at the start of the video. It is a Ryobi

@@AussieAliner one can only hope talking about (covid)???
Is there much stress on your back when lifting the roof up.
It is spring loaded, keep the tracks lubricated, so no stress on back
How long would one take to set up if it’s bucketing down and how much water would get inside during set up thanks
30 seconds, zero water
in an emergency situation can you tow this without putting the walls down
You can, but I wouldn't go too far
@@AussieAliner thanks I know in some situations with women solo travelers some places become unsafe and hooking it up quickly is easy but the take down as well is problematic.

Thanks for your comment - We are going cheap as well, the new Aliners here now have the non pop-out windows
@@AussieAliner Sorry to hear that. I guess paying more to get less is becoming a universal concept.
❤️
Any leaks in the years since you've owned it? I hear that's pretty common.
Have not had a single leak in 7 years
Thank you Rod.
Your welcome, and it's Rob
Can I ask what car your towing it with.
I have towed it with a 2014 Hyundai Ix35 2.0 litre but i now have a 2021 Mazda Cx5 GT turbo 2.5 litre. Both cars tow it well but the Cx5 has a bit more power.
