It's a shame you are down in Bristol as Campbell Caravans in Kirkham and Lostock Hall Preston are great we have bought our last van and the previous two from them.

Tell your OH not to rush into anything if he gets a feeling that the van isn't right walk away.  What Berth van do you want?

Have you looked on the Caravan Club Website can't remember whether you need to be a member or not???? but they have a classified section.....plus have a look on Auto Trader (caravan section).

Good luck.

Hi again, had an email back from the caravan guy in wales and he said the van is now sold.

Thanks for the info for the swindon caravan place, i will take a look in a minute.

Sue we either want a large twin axel 4 berth with long enough seats at the back that we could have bunks made to go above, or we want a 5 berth with a side dinette that converts to a bed to again get a bunk made. Ideally we're after a 6 berth with all the bunks in the back. We are willing to travel a few hrs for the right van. Hubbys a real pain because he wants a twin axel van and preferably something about 24-26ft long inc tow hitch. Where as i'm happy taking a 23ft van on a single axle so i can take the kids to "webbers" in Woodbury. Its a fab site and the kids love it. They have a length limit of 23ft though.

Just keep looking.....it isn't the best time to be looking as most people keep hold of their vans during the summer.

Have you looked at Highbridge Caravans?  We live in Bristol and that's where we bought our van from.

http://www.highbridgecaravans.co.uk/

They always have an enormous selection of used vans and their website is very good too - good pictures of everything they have in stock.

I don't honestly think you'll find a bigger selection anywhere else in the region and they're not too far to take your van back for any servicing or repair work you might want doing in future.
