The funky Puck

Big, boring caravans are usually white. Occasionally they get all edgy and have some scribbly Letraset on the sides.

Meet a caravan that’s bright blue, small, 30-years old and currently residing on eBay.

It’s a Puck, the smallest of the Eriba range and a German design that has remained virtually unchanged since the 1950s. 

Eribas are solidly made and can last for decades. They’re the European equivalent of an Airstream but without the weight. In exactly the same way that Europeans are the equivalent of Americans but without the weight.

The Eriba Puck has charm, character and is a thoroughly Punk Caravan.

This funky Puck is on eBay until 24 July or until someone buys it from its home in Baden-Baden.

Caravans go punk

This is the year of the Staycation.

Have you outgrown the tent? Fancy an RV but frightened by the cost? Drawn to a caravan but deterred by the image?

Welcome to PunkCaravan where Glamping is the new rock and roll.

Throw away the chinz curtains and fluffy cushions. Embrace a world of funky design and radical thinking. This is caravanning that is groovier, smaller, lighter, more environmentally-friendly.

PunkCaravan reveals how to camp in a field without getting mired in the 1950s.
