Buying A Caravan For Your Holiday

You probably have some idea of what you are going to use your
caravan for. Is it for two people; a family; to be used for a
couple of weeks every few years; are you going to spend the next
twelve months of your life living in it travelling around
Australia (or your country)?

Now that you know what it is going to be used for do some
homework. Some of the places to look before you start buying a
caravan include the internet. You must already have access to
the internet to find this site, so continue using the internet
in your privacy without any pressure. Have a look through the
classified ads in newspapers, trader publications, leisure
magazines etc.

If it is that time of the year in your area, caravan and leisure
shows are a good way to have a look at various vans at one
convenient location. You can make comparisons without getting
"trapped" by pushy sales people. If (and only if) you have
already researched your potential purchase and decided that a
new unit is what you want, think about buying one on the spot:
show-only discounts often represent good value.

If it is time to do some leg work go a visit some dealers, draw
up a list of "must haves" and take it with you as you shop. Have
a look at a number of different kinds of units (caravan,
motorhome, campers) in both the new and second-hand markets in
order to establish what you can get for your money. The leisure
market is large these days and there is no need to rush in -
take your time and get it right.

When you do go shopping for buying a caravan take a tape measure
with you to see what fits in where.

New caravans, campervans, camper-trailers and motorhomes are all
available through dealers and in some cases, direct from the
manufacture. Used units are available through dealers, or
privately through the classified ads in newspapers, trader
publications, leisure magazines and of course on the internet.
