Hi Homebird 2003,
You mention that the van comes with a three month warranty, and quite rightly comment that that is of no use just now as it could be more than three months before you can go out in it (especially if this winter is like the last!!).
Pretty pointless dealers giving a three month warranty in view of what the law actually says about the caravans they sell. This may be of assistance you.....
The Sale of Goods Act 1979 as amended by The Sale and Supply of Goods to Consumers Regulations 2002, requires the caravan to be of satisfactory quality, sufficiently durable, free from any defects. Section 48A (3) of the 1979 Act indicates that where a breach of the Act is found within six months of delivery of the caravan to you then the law deems that defect to have been in place on the date you contracted to buy it. The dealer has to proove otherwise e.g. that you deliberately damaged the van or improperly used it so causing damage.
With the law putting the burden on the dealer for the first six months of purchase a three month warranty should really be of six months duration.
