Quote: Originally posted by Little Stars on 12/5/2014Thank you all for your help,its a new caravan £15,500 and the dealer said they can knock off £250 but if they do the cash discount can't throw in any equipment but said they will do some extra discount on the accessories,do you think this is a good deal?I will look into purchasing the books tango55
Firstly, make sure that the dealer is including a brand new leisure battery (with warranty) within the purchase price and not trying to include it in the generous £250 offer. You wouldn't purchase a car without a battery and the same applies to a caravan as you will need it for operating the water pump, internal lighting and exterior awning light so without a battery the caravan is not fit for purpose so it comes under the sale of goods act anyway. Regarding the items you will require there are two ways of looking at it and that all depends on whether you want brand new items or willing to search for second hand. If you want all brand new goods it will come to a lot more than £250 but if you are willing to buy quality used items costing less then that's the choice you make yourself. The very basic items you will need are: A wheel clamp, hitchlock, single or double caravan steps, a pair of ramps and wheel chocks, a water barrel (Aquaroll), waste water tank (wastemaster) and waste pipes to connect to the drainage ports, a 25 metre electric hook up lead and of course a water pump which should be included anyway.
