History
The 1960s saw the introduction of moulded fibreglass panels used for the front, back and roof panels, a method of construction still used today. The Carlight Casetta, a (14ft 2 berth) was, for a short period, also produced with all-fibreglass side panels.
This caravan has had 2 previous owners, the first until 1969, the second owner keeping it until we purchased it in 1996.
This caravan is in its original condition with the exception of some minor accident repair work carried out in 1969 and minor paintwork to some areas of the roof.
