Coming to a motorway near you

Here are some names for you to ponder:-

Elddis, Senator, Coachman, Swift, Abbey, Sprite, Ace, Solaris, Avondale, Bessacar, Lunar,
do they mean anything to you?

If you drive a car on Britain's motorways and major roads, they soon will, because they are makes of caravans and they're beginning to appear in droves. The M5 and A30 were infested with these wretched things weaving along at a steady 54 m.p.h. as I drove to Cornwall today. I didn't see any seriously bad driving, but the number of people who want to tow their own small home behind their car seems to be growing. Jeremy Clarkson will be delighted.
