The advert claims that Carrum Caravan Services are the '...makers of the Craftsman-built, beautiful, all-season aluminium "HOME MOBILE" ', but the van shown is actually a Millard as shown in the photo of a Millard caravan below, originally posted by Franklin1. See here:
Note especially the coloured panel on the side, and also the rear of the van and the little 'kicks' in the panel above the rear window, below the rear window and towards the bottom of the bottom panel that can also be seen on the 'Home Mobile'.
