Sounds a sensible seller too. Bet he would be able to sell way more than the 14 pairs he has listed. (y)

Just had the elements fail on my Truman 6E, I also had a gas fault where the boiler would sometimes shut down after ten minutes on heating . Always ok on gas water heating.
I had the boiler removed by local mobile caravan engineer with a view to sending it to Truma at Burton on Trent , rang Truma but they are not doing repairs untill February next year , suggested I send it to local caravan centre who were fully trained to undertake repairs.
Took boiler to local repair centre and they inspected it and informed me it required 2 PCB boards , new elements,combi heat rod kit and burner pot.
Parts £1041.19
Labour 4 hours £93.00 per hour
Total £1453.19
I refused the repairs and paid the very reasonable £40 inspection fee.
I have managed to acquire a new Truma 6E at a lot less than the repair charge and the local mobile caravan engineer only charged me £40 to remove boiler and £40 to fit the new one.

The company I bought the new one off took it in part exchange ( glad to see the back of it to be honest).
