We hired a Sterckeman from Freedom caravans in Stafford when we were deciding if we liked caravanning. We hired a Starlett - it had a front double you had to make up, and fixed bunks. No oven, but HUGE fridge. It was a tidy van. would have bought one, but couldn't afford it!

French made caravans, fairly basic spec, cheap when new so don't pay too much.

Do you have any rough idea of price?
This is a 4 berth Freedom model 420D, year 2000.
A similar caravan of the same make would cost about £9000-10000 new (today)

This http://www.freedomcaravans.com/liberty-california-470ct-hire-c-i103.html is a 1999, and is going for £3995. Hope this helps, you don't say what size you're after - but 2 berths are bound to be cheaper (aren't they?!)

Yes, we need 2 double beds. This is a private seller, and doesn't come with any extras...

I had a 2006 Sterckeman Starlett 390CP. It had the fixed double at the front and an eating area at the back that made into another double. I traded it in in October for the Bessacarr. I loved my Sterckeman but just found the van to small and it wasn't the worlds best rallying van as it only has 2 12V lights and no gas heating or hot water, I used mine all year round and was away nearly every weekend so it got some hammer and it was starting to show. Whilst emptying the van I noticed that all the units were starting to come away from the wall as the screws were working loose. Also had to do a lot of little repairs on it as the build quality was not the greatest. It cost me just over £7000 new so don't pay too much for a second hand one if you think its the one for you. The Freedom caravans are better built although smaller. I had a 2005 Freedom Jetstream first class before the Sterckeman and that was much better. They do a 4 berth version as well.

Thank everyone for your advice.
It turns out that there was another buyer for the caravan and it's now gone! I didn't even get to see it.
