Add a little luxury to your tourer with these envious upgrades and additions.

What if you could create your perfect caravan with every little feature that you could ever wish for? It's not as difficult as you think! While some aftermarket accessories are expensive, there are plenty of additions you can make for next to no money. Both the pricey and penny pinching pieces of kit have their appeal, so take a look at some of the best below.

Motormovers

A caravan motormover could be your key to easy storage, perfect pitching and increased security, too. They work by engaging a motor against your tourer's wheel to move the whole unit via your input on a handy remote control. It means that you can manoeuvre your tourer into the tightest of spaces, whether on holiday at home or in storage.

Leveling system

Another aftermarket fitting (unless you're lucky enough to have purchased a luxury caravan with one already attached) is a leveling system. Replacing your corner steadies with automated units and adding two hydraulic jacks on the axle, a leveling kit will take all the spirit level guesswork out of pitching on an uneven surface. It'll speed up the job, too, as the process normally takes no longer than a couple of minutes.

USB plug sockets

This is a simple enough DIY task if you're handy with your electrics

In these days of smartphones and tech-related everything, the number of plugs in a caravan isn't enough to provide power to your appliances and charge your gadgets. Solve that by upgrading your plug sockets to ones with a couple of USB ports on as well.
This is a simple enough DIY task if you're handy with your electrics but, if you're not confident, talk to your dealership.

Bluetooth speaker

Speaking of USB devices... This one's a must. Your caravan's radio headunit might be great, but it's no match for the bass boost of a brilliant Bluetooth boom box. Sync to your smartphone and you've got a portable party in the caravan or outside. My pick of the bunch is the Cowin Ark, but there are speakers available at every price point imaginable.

Sensational storage

One of the most important aspects of caravan ownership is storage space. The great thing is that this feature is easily one of the most customiseable as well. Whether you're using the cupboards you have, adding in hanging units or light shelving on doors, or adding innovative box space from the likes of IKEA, the options are endless. A great source of DIY inspiration can be found with Sugru, a mouldable rubber that sets – perfect for a hanger hook wherever you want one.

Caravan crochet

It's not all about what you can put in your caravan, but also what you can do in your caravan when it comes to trick touches and entertainment.
