hi
I was wondering can anybody point me in the right direction, i have a Hobby prestige 650 and have had a disaster with the glass cover for the sink, can anybody point me in the right direction as to where I can get a second hand one or a new one.


Many thanks

Hi moragwilkie.

You could try a call to this number: 01495 792700

Website is: http://www.caravanbreakers.net/

Try putting 'Caravan Breakers' into Google and see what comes up, as this could provide you with a few more caravan breakers.

Alternatively you could also put 'SMEV' into Google and see if you can get a contact in the UK as the sink/cooker is made by them.

Our sinktop smashed on a trip back from Ireland and I ended up getting a replacement on a trip to the Czech Republic!
It was while on holiday but it only cost me £35 and not the £65 that Hobby wanted.

Good luck!

Just found another website for Caravan Breakers but there are not that many 'Breakers' listed.

See if that is any good.

my memory is not as good as it used t be but i seem to recall a guy from inglestone down south advertising used hobby's on ebay.
He also advertised some that he was breaking.Perhaps someone else remembers him and might have a user nane etc
just a thought
