I hope the roof vents / skylights on ours are robust when we pick it up. It was 46C here yesterday and it will be parked in the open with a cover on.

Thanks so much for sharing your Avan. I am looking at buying one, so your video has been helpful. I will be travelling solo with my dog, is there anything you think would be good for me to know or consider when looking at Avans?

Did I see two roof vents, 4 feet apart? If so, how do you cycle them? For example, one venting in, one venting out? Or both venting out with windows open as air draw? Or the reverse of that? Are vents also fans? Comment at will. Steven, Utah, USA

Is the van easy to open up fully by lifting the roof and sides? I am looking at getting an A'Van and will be travelling by myself. It looks relatively easy though not sure if that is due ti the age of your van. Also, if it is raining would you need to wait until it is not raining to stop rain getting in the van? Many thanks, Lauren.

So your van sits permanently in your driveway backyard all year long and you use the cover correct? Our back yard has room for a van but not a shed. You mentioned storage As in storage?

Can you advise me re battery. I’m new to Avan Aliner and the van has been in storage since end of May. I’m going away Monday but lights and fridge not working. I didn’t realise you needed to keep it powered while in storage
