Read the dealers' warranty, does it say its' transferable?

Plus check that the service history is complete, as without it the warranty will be invalid.

a 2005 is 6 years old and imho will not have any makers warranty left on it.if you buy it from a dealer he can put his own warranty on it of 6 or 12 months from the day of purchase.

You are covered by the Sale of Goods Act for up to 6 years! However after 6 months you will need to prove that the fault existed prior to purchase. On a 2005 caravan the dealer should give you at least 6 months warranty. If not, walk away!

From the info suppied by OP they are buying privatley, the warranty is left over from when the seller bought from a dealer. As contract is not with dealer I don't think Sale of Goods Act would apply.

Then, if it is transferable you may need to assign it to you in accordance with the protocol set out in the warranty. Check its requirements. If you need a formal assignment document just say and I can post one. Can't do it at the moment as I am away on a CC site and the type of form is on the PC at home. Will be back home Monday
