If it's a new van then it should come with a battery, spare wheels are extras on some models but according to the spec this comes with a spare wheel
copy and paste the link. http://bristolcaravans.com/listings/2018-adria-altea-542-dk-severn-bristol-caravan-6-berth-new-2/, look under key features.

Sourcing a spare wheel for a new caravan, you've been had , it should come with it fitted and haggle for a new battery as opposed to a very cheap plastic caravan step 😉

We looked at the Adria Altea range.
The dealer we visited pointed out that they didnt include a spare wheel, battery or t.v. aerial in the price new.
However they would happily fit and sell them to us.
We decided that we would look elsewhere.
Go look for a good second hand one and hopefully get it, and perhaps more, all included.
