Although Airstream caravans are fully legal for use in the USA, they don't comply with many UK and EU requirements for trailers. When towing in the UK or Europe, a number of modifications should be made to axles, tow-hitch, lighting, electrics and gas.
It goes without saying that, unless this conversion work is done to a very high standard, then it could be dangerous for anyone using or towing the caravan.
OUR NEW READY TO TOW PACKAGE includes a full UK/EU-compliant conversion, with brand new custom-built axle, over-run braking system with new 50mm coupling, and specially made hubs to take Airstream wheels, so that everything still looks original. Also included in the deal is a full conversion of external running lights to include amber indicators and foglamps, a new gas-bottle regulator, and a 240-volt mains electricity installation. Check and compare our prices - they're unbeatable!
