New to the Caravan life

This story happened on: 08/09/2020

My wife and I  went out shopping  for tee shirts legging etc and called into  a well known outdoor shop. We asked about trailer tents  which they did not do. but told us where to go. To be honest  the caravan  outlet we were sent to was very off putting sales staff not very welcoming to us. On our way Home we stopped off at a proper professional  Caravan and Motorhome  suppliers which was only 8 miles from our home.  As we looked around at the Caravans we were directed to an 11 year old van  which was costing £11,000. we agreed to buy it  when Caroline saw a Lunar Venus 540/4 which turned out to be 4 Days old. and for £16,999. It was a no brainer for an extra £6,000 buying a new Van. We never owned a Caravan  before so are so excited to get up and going. we are hoping to go away over Christmas 2020, uncertain due to Covid-19 but here is hoping. So if you need any Tee Shirts beware  it could lead to buying  a new Caravan.

Welcome to "our world" there is plenty of advise on CT (when it worksundecided)

Xmas could be a problem booking this late in the year depending on where you would like to go 

Advise for you when you take delivery of your new van  ,try it out local if possible to your dealer in case of any "problems"and do not be afraid to say it is your first trip to the site staffsmile

Are you being given a starter pack from your dealer? try to get one if notwink

keep us informed of your experiancecool
