Sounds like the dealer is doing the proper thing and sorting the unit out before sale. It will cost them, so hats off to them for a good PDI. Yes, obviously they would have had to do it as and when it showed up but as said, a good PDI and correct action.
We are just in the process of purchasing a 2005 caravan from a Reading dealer and waiting for them to contact us to advise that they have completed the PDI, service and deep clean, also the replacement of a faulty door seal and one or two other little things we noticed when looking at it. Also the salesman was up front and pointed out that there is some damp at the front left corner to be dealt with. He didn't need to tell us, and advised us straight away while we were looking around; we didn't have a damp meter at the time. Since then, we have taken our part-ex in and left it there, and then we checked the new 'van with our meter. The salesmen was right; there is only damp showing where he said so we are pleased and have actually given them more days so that there is plenty of time to sort it. (the bank holiday obviously reduced their available working time) We have been advised how they deal with damp; not just a seal and quick dry but a strip in the areas and replacement of any wall board etc which may be required.
My advice is, if you are happy with the caravan in all other respects, go for it.
Best regards
Pete
