Kenmore Caravans of Mirfield Yorkshire are supplying my "new" van and I smiled to myself this afternoon when I called at Kenmore and saw two other Pastiche vans of about the same age being prepped at the same time.

I have been very impressed with this company, give them a try.

Hi we’re looking at buying a tourer and start caravanning and need some advice. I’ve been told to buy a van from 2014 onwards as they changed the build quality from then ie better insulated, is this true? Plus which makes to go for is a bailey better than a lunar or is it personal choice, any help will be greatly appreciated thanks
there is plenty to consider weight size and sleeping capacity as a novice don't max your car out keep to 85% rule. It does not matter if you buy private or a dealer, if you buy private you will save a few quid and you may well inherit a fair amount of kit that if brought new would be expensive such as awning motor mover etc. if you use a dealer you get a warranty depending on age of van may be 12 months some warranties may not be much good though, however if you pay top money from a well known large dealer you will get a lightly used van with a decent warranty and possibly a starter kit to get you going. My best advice to you is whatever you buy and from whoever you buy from if you don't have knowledge or experience of caravans then pay a fee to a professional to inspect first even if you pay out for a few to be done it will be money well spent
