hello!  one of the things we looked for was if it included a kitchen and were it would go when set up, so as it was'nt in the way! also what storage does it have, can you get any bedding in it when folded down, kitchen utensils and things like that. Inner tents/pods also a must as can be very drafty they are included in most but just check as have seen a few up for sale without. We have previously owned conways but last year purchased a raclet.

Hope that is of some help    :0)

yeah that too and the poles all there would be a good idea! lol! electrics ie lights aswell.  what one are you looking at?

My post is probably a little late, however:

Personally I would prefer a canvas that has not been reproofed - often reproofing canvas is done due to poor condition of the canvas, if this is the case then it will be a temporary fix and will need reproofing frequently to maintain its waterproof nature.

Look for rotten floor especially around wheel arches in a Cabannon / Conway, Sunncamp style TT (not sure about others)

Hinges on the kitchen lid (not that difficult to fix)

Have a look at zips - you can live with a tricky zip, but make a price allowance

Rubbers may have perished, especially if TT has been used extensively in the sun - budget accordingly.

Put up the awning, to see how it is done, to make sure poles are all present and canvas is in good condition

If your veiwing a camper thats already set up ask to see the trailer cover because these can sometimes be very poor in condition and not that cheap to replace.

Dont buy the first one you see, take your time and its worth travelling to see whats on offer.
