hiya! Hubby is off to look at a caravan this evening in our local area and the guy has said he wants £3500 for it but we're not really too sure what caravans of its year are worth. Its a 1997 compass twin axle with an awning with a bedroom annexe. It looks pretty tidy inside from the pics and the body work looks really good too. it comes with a few extras such as tv, dvd player, cd player, waste master and aqua roll.

Does the price sound about right or should we haggle a bit. To be honest we only have £3200 to spare.

Cheers!

Think you really need the actual model name to sort this

You might find it on this site.Sounds a bit pricey for an 11 year old.

Just noticed you have a Vivaro Van. Not the best of choices  with a twin axle in the UK I would have thought!!!!!!!!

It will be fine, its only around 1350kg unladen and our van is 1960 or 1990kg's not totally sure as i dont have the figures in front of me. Ive checked that website and they dont have the model im thinking of buying. The biggest they have is a single axle 4 berth at 16ft which they say is worth £2500. Bear it mind this van is bigger and better so would be worth more than that, plus the all the toys with it.
