got ours last week for £250 got dampo but not bothered as we are renovating her been really good fun

new wheels cost £94 quick fit would advise this to be done on any budget van esp if been sat on em.

Still plodding along, waiting on the next step in my health care. Some days better than others, all better than some other folks in worse conditions, as a friend of mine always replies, " As well as can be expected under the present circumstances!"
Hope you and yours are OK!

yes papa pip,missed our banter of late,did not bother with the caravan buyer this year.keep your chin up mate.

why not try a wanted advert on this site or try less well known web sites like c4caravans, but you are correct i know people who i would never have dreamed of taking  up caravaning.

They cant all me newbies surley? so there must be some second han vans due around very soon...... I know i traded mine 1 year old in for a new on. Lost very little on it and now back on the forecourt for the nearly new price! Will be interested to see how long it will be there for....

Have you considered looking at the dealers forecourts Paul? the dealer up the road from us has a good selection of used vans. Not sure of the price range but they have most layouts available. I can't name them but they're not five minutes from J18. You'd be sure of some warranty with your caravan buying from a dealer.

We sold our van within 24 hours of putting it up for sale.

In my experience over the last couple of months 5 berth caravans in particular are really sought after and are selling really quickly. So if your van is reasonably priced it should fly out the door.
