Hi,,

After weeks of looking for a cheap caravan i bought a 1993 Sunseeker Classic Deluxe trailer tent on ebay for £190,,, it was a bit of an impulse buy and i hope i dont end up regretting it..

I've been lurking for a while and read as much as i could regarding what to look for when viewing,, the seller sad that i could set it up to check it out and if i wasnt happy then i could walk away,,, anyway as it was raining i decided just to have a good look over the canvas for any tears, splits or signs of mold (everything appears fine),, all the poles were there (i think) and although there was a lot of dirt on the outside of the trailer it was very clean and dry inside the trailer.. So i handed over the money and took it home,,, cant wait for tommorow to try to set it up and see if i've bought a lemon

Seems you got it for a good price - book a cheap pitch somewhere and have a practice at putting it up = if you find camping or the trailer tent is not for you I would think you would be able to resale for the amount you paid so nothing lost!  But lots of fund to gain

I hope it pays off, sounds like you could have got a bargain. Try to get the frame made up asap so you can contact them if bits are missing. Look forward to seeing the pictures tonight
