Caravan Accessories for Your Second Hand Caravan

Are you looking to buy a second hand caravan? Do you need an affordable one?

If you answered YES to any of the above questions then the following tips should help you a great deal:

Scrutinize the Caravan

Here’s what I mean: before thinking of buying a second hand caravan, ensure you survey both the inside and outside of the caravan for any damage that could cause you problem down the line. You should check for rust and structural damage.

What are you selling?

That’s the first question to ask. Before paying for the caravan, ask the owner why they’re selling as well as some documental proofs that they own the caravan in question. They should have the maintenance history of the caravan, its registration and if it’s not a very old model then the handbook.

Always Ask for a Safe History

Before going for a second hand caravan, request a sale history from the caravan owner as that will provide you more in-depth information. Check the sale history for major accidents, theft and missing number plates. All of this decreases the value of a caravan and can be used to negotiate a lower price.

Check for Legal Issues

Before giving any money to buy a caravan, ensure you have it checked for legal issues. Take a note of the number plate and call the local police to confirm if the caravan was involved in any sort of criminal activity (or stolen).

Have a Specialist Look over the Caravan

Before going to take a look at a second hand caravan, hire a specialist to look over the caravan (to ensure it’s in a good state). If your specialist mechanic finds any issues ask the seller for an explanation. Also, you may want to walk away from purchasing a caravan with major issues.
