I paid £2500 last year for my 1992 Avondale. They were asking £3000 for a 1993 Bailey and £4000 for a 1994 Avondale. So it doesn't sound bad to me. Probably not the best time to get a good deal though.

Doesn't sound too bad from a dealer, but if you buy private you will get more for your money.

If you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, just keep going till you go round the bend.

We have just bought a 1993 Fleetwood Colchester 4 berth with awning and some extras inc a colour tv for 2k. It is fabulous inside and out with all the usual heater, cassette toilet etc; etc. Bought privately,  hope this helps you compare prices.

Hi

If you could lay your hands on a copy of Caravan Buyer 2007, which comes out in January every year - you will finds it lists values for used caravans up to 10 years old.

The values are what you would expect to see on dealers' forecourts, rather than private sales, but it does give you a good indication.

WHSmiths sell the mag, or you can buy back copies from the publisher all year round.  It's not cheap, but it might save you money in the end!   I would look up the Lunar for you, but I've left my copy of the magazine in my caravan, which is in storage - sorry!

I hope this helps you.
