cheers

Compass is a brand owned by the Explorer Group, as is Elddis. Explorer used to release basically the same vans under the two brands with only subtle differences (e.g. Compass Avantgarde & Elddis Autoquest ranges).

A year or two back Explorer decided to concentrate just on the Elddis brand. There shouldn't be any issues as a result because the company is still going strong.

Firestorm was actually Barrons/Discover, though they did do a special for Brownhills as well.

Having said that, the Elddis Autoquest 100 which we owned had the same "extras" as a Firestorm branded model of the same vintage ::bigsmile:

Hi Dotdot - as Graham has said there shouldn't be any issues with buying a Compass - we bought an '02 Compass Avantgarde last September as our first MH and are very pleased with it - just returned from a week in Scotland with no problems whatsoever. It's not so luxurious as some, and I suppose could be described as being towards the lower end of the scale, but that's reflected in the price you pay (or should be) and it's certainly not a cheap and nasty 'van. We love ours, and will be in no hurry to replace it.
