Well, having been unable to use our Countryman since last September because of the weather, we are now considering buying a caravan.   We don't have a lot of money so we have to be careful that we get the right van for our needs. There's so much choice but I have decided which layout will suit us, but getting one at the right price is proving very difficult.  It seems that the best prices are "up north" which is not a big problem except that if we find any faults with the van then it would be difficult to keep running back to  the dealers
.
Keep fingers crossed that we get what we want!!

  1. What sort of layout were you thinking of going for? We would recommend a fixed bed layout, saves having to make beds up everyday!

  2. Hi,
    I've been following your blog - living the dream!! We decided on twin dinette, with the option to use the front as singles or double & the end dinette converting to a double which could be made up & left as a bed.We have a 10 year old daughter so we'll use whatever combination suits us at the time. We found one in a dealer close by & after looking at it on the internet for most of the week we went to look at it on Friday. Its got everything we wanted - awning(porch),motor mover,Winterhoff stabiliser,2 x gas bottles,Electric lead & much more. When they offered us £500 off the price before we even had a chance to haggle we snapped it up. We will be picking it up about mid-April after its had its service & valet. Can't wait!!
