Sold my van today as we are looking to upgrade. Question is when is the best time to get a good deal? November/December when people dont want them? Got a caravan I can borrow to go away in later on in august so no rush for now.

I have always tried to buy (and sell) January - March. Buying is also good at the end of the season as some people sell then and buy in the Spring to avoid storage charges.

If you intend to buy used from a dealer try just after a major show , they always have plenty of part exs they need to move quickly because they need the space.

If  you can try and hang off until December and you will get a good 'van at a good price.

If you're buying used, I'd go for September onwards. All the new models come out then so the regular swappers will be changing then to keep ahead of the jones' If you're buying new then I'd buy when you're ready, you're buying new in a game that can sell more than it can make at present so I'd think shopping around for deals is about all you can do but if our dealers attitude of "Thats the price" is anything to go by then I'd buy what I wanted when I was ready.
