I would think you would be better selling the van privately in the spring.

We were looking for a specific van last Sept and found one on the web at a dealership I rang and enquired and advised we had a part exchange. I quickly agreed a really good part exchange price over the phone, you have to be realistic with the value of your van but also not want to give it away but we ended up getting £2000 more than any other dealership had offered. The downside is we got nothing off the van we were buying, it was quite keenly priced, so we attempted to get extras and ended up with free transfer of our powermover and a set of new carpets.
Both you and the dealer have to honest about the condition of the vans else the deal won't hang together. For me if I can I would prefer to use a dealer for warranty and general financial security.
Therefore don't necessarily rule out a dealership.
