I am visiting the NEC in a few weeks as haven't yet decided upon a caravan and wanted to look around and hopefully come away with a better idea...although I am sure I will just be more confused!

I haven't been before...any tips about which stands I should make an effort to see, or shall I just follow my nose?

we had our 1st visit to the NEC last year, best advise i can give you is leave your cheque book and credit cards at home, lots of good stuff to see, great ideas for future trips too'
although we had a full day there we could have done with longer to stand any chance of seeing everything on offer.am sure you'll enjoy it ,we did

Hi Peter,
That is pretty good advise! I have a budget but intend to think with my head and not heart...wish me luck! Looking forward to it.

just have a good time and have a good look around before you committ to buy as you said set yourself a buget and try to stick to it, that can be very hard sometimes :) Posted by Robert Brown on 11 Oct 2013

Hi Jenny, it's going to be my first visit to the show. I have no fixed plans except just to have a great day out with like minded people.

Hope you have a lovely day.

Regards
Ray
