This site started out as a resource for potential new caravanners looking to buy the first caravan. Most people start their caravanning ownership with a second hand caravan and buying on the used market can be a bit of a minefield. We briefed Andrew Jenkinson, the well known and respected expert and writer on all matters caravan, to produce a guide to buying a used touring caravan, which we had planned to use on another site. We thought that what Andrew produced was potentially so useful, we decided to give it a site of its own. We hoping that this site can grow, with articles on a variety of caravanning matters and hopefully it will continue to be helpful to people taking their first steps in caravan ownership.
You won’t find caravans for sale here but hopefully you will find information to help you in your search for a caravan. We want to encourage potential owners to make a better decision in buying a used caravan. We want you to buy a good one and if you don’t, to realise the risks and potential costs involved if you take on an older caravan that needs some work. If you suspect a caravan that you are thinking of buying may require repairs or servicing we strongly recommend that you get professional advice and costing’s for that work before you commit to buying. It is often less expensive in the long run to buy a really good, well maintained caravan than one that has hidden problems.
There are many good value touring caravans out there if you want to find one with as few problems as possible, this site might just help you find what you are looking for.
