In all likelihood, every caravan owner has been there. All of the bags are packed and loaded, a warm breeze is washing over the kids strapped safely in the back of the car and the caravan is finally hitched up and ready for the off. But ten minutes from home one of you suddenly remembers that vital piece of the holidaying paraphernalia that’s lying, forgotten, on the kitchen table! While frustrating, such antics are part and parcel of every family holiday and can be easily remedied. Forgetting to secure adequate caravan insurance however, could ruin the entire holiday.

Imagine motoring away in your Suzuki convertible when you are suddenly caught in heavy rain or a storm (as is so often the case in the UK). You need a soft top that is going to fold up in an instant or you risk getting a soaking. On the other hand, when the sun makes a brief appearance it is crucial that your top folds down rapidly to enable you to enjoy such a rarity. This is why the range of Suzuki soft top replacements available from the team here at Crusader 4×4 are so popular.

We cater for all of the Suzuki Jeep models, including the Vitara, Grand Vitara, Jimny and SJ, and each of our soft tops is manufactured to the exacting Original Equipment Maker (OEM) standard. These 4×4 accessories fit like the original equipment as specified by the manufacturer, ensuring they meet the highest standards. Always purchase your accessories from a specialist who prides themselves on achieving such a level – this is the only way to ensure you are receiving quality products. Ours are often supplied to Suzuki as replacement items, which is testament to this.

All of our soft top products fit watertight to the vehicles they are designed for. They are heat-sealed for added waterproofing, which eliminates the risk of annoying and potentially damaging leakages, and ensures your spirits aren’t dampened when driving in the rain. Our foldaway conversions enable the user to fold down their soft top in mere seconds too, bringing real meaning to the term ‘convertible’.

Manufactured from high quality vinyl with multi Poly-Cotton sewn seams, these soft tops are available in a selection of colours that will fit seamlessly into the existing shade of your vehicle. With clear or tinted window finishes on offer too, our Suzuki soft top replacements represent a stunning way of updating your 4×4.

If you were to undertake an industrial catering project, it is likely that you would put in place all of the key equipment to store and cook the food you had prepared. However, you may neglect to purchase items that make up an often overlooked yet essential part of the process: cleaning supplies. Keeping the workspace clean is important for health and safety as well as the aesthetics of the area. One industrial catering equipment supplier, Advantage Catering, can provide a whole host of chemicals, pest control and hygiene tools to ensure your work area is spotless.

Hygiene equipment includes soap dispensers and hand dryers, both of which are important in maintaining the cleanliness of all parties that are coming into contact with food. Advantage Catering Equipment can also supply air fresheners that provide 24-hour operation in combating malodour.

The warewashing chemicals supplied by Advantage Catering include salt granules, glass renovate and detergents, as well as rinse aids, to restore glassware to its former glory. Salt granules are suitable for use in water softeners and dish washers, thanks to their design they dissolve rapidly. The renovate range will remove film and traces of chemicals, leading to spotless drying and lasting shine wash after wash.

Cleaning chemicals for commercial kitchens are designed to leave no lingering smell or tainting, so can be used on surfaces without fear of ‘contaminating’ the taste of the food that is being prepared. These will kill germs and bacteria too, so are crucial for maintaining a safe and hygienic environment.

Pest control measures are crucial in keeping the work area clear of insects, which are at best a nuisance and at worst a health hazard. Fly and insect killers will prevent infestation by eliminating pests before they can spread. Alongside the other items of industrial catering equipment listed above, these will facilitate the upkeep of a clean and well-maintained area.

Many older caravans have limited security features and can be extremely easy to break in to. This can mean that they are more likely to fall victim to criminal activities such as, theft and vandalism. As a result of this, insurance premiums for older caravans are often quite high. In fact, in many cases it would probably be cheaper to purchase a new, high-spec caravan. At Insure My Caravan, we are proud of our competitive caravan insurance quotes and we even offer a ‘new for old’ scheme on our static caravan insurance.

Our website enables all caravan owners to purchase comprehensive caravan insurance that matches their requirements exactly, at just a few clicks of a mouse. Whether they own a static or touring caravan, a motor home or a park home, we are certain that they will find exactly what they are looking for.

As well as selling insurance policies, we are keen to help caravan owners and the police to crack down on crimes involving the theft or vandalism of caravans. We feel that one of the best ways to do so is to ensure that all caravans have adequate security features.

As such, we offer a ‘new for old’ policy on our static caravan insurance. This essentially means that if a caravan owner upgrades to a newer model they will receive a discount on their insurance, if they are insuring to at least £18,000 or more.

Of course, we wouldn’t expect every caravan owner to purchase a brand new holiday home – we appreciate that this can be expensive. That is why we always ensure that our policies are extremely well priced in comparison to other providers.

If you are planning on holidaying or staying in your caravan for a period of time this summer, we would recommend investing in caravan insurance. For more information about our ‘new for old’ scheme or to purchase online, please visit our website.

Every builder, electrician or DIY enthusiast worth their salt knows how frustrating wet tools can be to work with. When metal equipment gets wet, rust can set in; pliers seize up and tape measure rewind haltingly. If you have a job to do then you need functioning tools. It’s as simple as that. Crusader 4×4’s range of Hilux accessories includes a selection of Soft Tonneau Covers that could be the key to keeping expensive equipment in good condition.

Made from automotive grade black vinyl, our covers are the practical answer to British weather; some of the pickup accessories in our range even contain rain bars as standard so that standing water doesn’t become a problem. They look great too. If your Hilux is more of a looker than a worker then a good quality non-fade tonneau cover could be the finishing touch you need. Unprotected pickup beds look untidy, and standing water can gradually deteriorate the plastic and metalwork.

A simple cover could also transform your truck into an even more useful vehicle. They can be installed and removed in mere seconds, meaning that you can do the shopping in the truck as well as being able to take the old three piece suite to the tip. Tonneau covers really do capitalise on the Hilux’s natural advantages over covered vans, creating the ultimate utility vehicle. Here at Crusader 4×4 we stock tonneau covers for most pickup styles including non drill covers.

If you’re looking for soft tonneau covers for pickups then Crusader 4×4 have exactly what you need. Whether you need to keep your equipment dry and out of sight of thieves, or want to smarten up your pride and joy for the next meet; log on to our website to see details of what Hilux accessories we can offer you.
