The Faq Of Buying A Caravan

When buying a caravan for the first time (or even the second and third time)

, it seems that a lot of buyers will have similar questions about the process. To save you the hassle of asking the seller, however, see whether your query is in the below frequently asked questions of buying a caravan:

Once I have bought my caravan, do I have to pay any other fees or charges?

The short answer to this question is yes. As a caravan is a vehicle that is towed on the road, you will need to make sure that it is registered and that you keep this registration up to date. You will also have to make sure that your van has the proper insurance to protect yourself against theft and damage. These costs are generally yearly. You will also have to make sure that your caravan is repaired as soon as damage or issues occur, which could be costly (depending on the problem).

Can we take our bicycles, surfboards and other sporting equipment with us?

Some caravans are fitted with storage compartments that are large enough to accommodate these sorts of equipment. They are generally accessible from the outside (saving you from tracking your bike through the van) and lock up securely to prevent theft. Other caravans can be fitted with specialised bicycle racks that enable you to take your bikes with you on holidays.

We cannot afford to buy a brand new caravan; are there any issues with buying one second hand?

The issues that could arise with buying a second hand caravan are similar to those that could arise when buying anything second hand (such as a car or even a house). There may be hidden damage that is costly to repair (such as damp), it may have been involved in an accident that has damaged the integrity of the van, or it may have been stolen. The best way to prevent these issues is to thoroughly inspect the caravan and to request a service history.

What sorts of facilities can we expect to have access to when staying in caravan parks?

Really, the available facilities will change from park to park, but you will generally have access to a toilet and shower block, rubbish disposal, electricity and water hook ups (unless you are staying somewhere more secluded, like a National Park). Some caravan parks will also have swimming pools, tennis courts, playgrounds, entertainment rooms, laundries and a general store on offer.

If your question was not answered, there is no harm in asking the seller or someone else who owns a caravan for clarification after all, it is important that you make the right decision regarding a caravan purchase, or else you might end up regretting it.
