Yeah, bless 'em. Top Gear: maintaining the trade-in values of secondhand caravans since 2001.

I've seen some of the Brainiac shows - very repetitive, I thought.

it did after a while Viggo and just added bits inbetween the lighting of the fuse and the blowing up.
was funny though when they had 6 of them and determined which one blew up by potting a snooker ball and wheich hole it went into set off a fuse

Set about it with a circular saw. Mine was chopped up and went to the breakers.

Roof - got a tenner for it.
Walls - into the local dump.
Windows - about £30
Blinds - £30 EACH!!!
3 way Fridge - £100
Loo - £85
Taps - £20 EACH!!!!
12v lights - £5 each
The list is endless

I ended up selling it bit by bit for about £800. Nearly all of it went on Ebay.
It was a 1994 2 berth rotbox witha broken floor and botched repairs in the past.
The chassis alone is worth £50 bare metal, people make all kinds of trailers from caravan chassis. They just dont want the mess of removing the bodywork.

Break it yourself if you have the time
