Preparing Caravans for Sale
Prepare Second Hand Caravans for Sale
Caravans for sale need to look the best they can when on the market. The better it looks, the more chance you have of getting a high price from a buyer. By carrying out a thorough clean inside and out, you can make a huge difference to the caravan’s appearance. A dirty caravan for sale will not fetch as much as it could if it were clean.
Remove all clutter and give it a good vacuum. You could also rejuvenate surfaces with dedicated spray products. Adding certain touches, like a vase of flowers or a bowl of fruit, can really heighten a buyers’ vision and will to buy.
Take measures to make the caravan smell nice. Buyers will not appreciate a caravan that smells of stale smoke or anything unpleasant. A good airing and the use of neutral air fresheners will do the trick.
Second hand caravans for sale should have as few problems as possible. If there are minor issues that you are aware of with your caravan, it is normally worth having them fixed before putting the caravan for sale. The money that you will lose from a buyer for a broken component could work out to be more than how much it would have cost to fix in the first place.
Ensure that plumbing and electrics are all in good order. Check that the tires and brakes are working well.
Selling Caravans
When advertising second hand caravans for sale, it is important that you are helpful and as honest as you can be. Potential buyers could be put off by the simplest of things when looking for caravans for sale. For instance, if you do not include your home telephone number, buyers can become suspicious. Although this seems like a minor omission, buyers may be weary of someone who is not willing to give a permanent, fixed number.
When selling caravans, make sure you have all the necessary documentation ready for buyers to see. This includes regristration with CRiS and its service history.
When a buyer comes to visit caravans for sale, it is important that they try out everything they can. Allow them to test all features.

Caravan Crash Craziness!
Carousel Standard Caravan Review
Gobur Carousel caravans are unique in that they are designed to fold up for storage. When needed for use, the Carousel caravan can be easily erected with no hassle. The Carousel Standard folding caravans are made up of ten models – each with different measurements and berth numbers.
Benefits of the Folding Caravan
There are two main advantages of having a caravan that can fold up:
- Towing – When the Carousel is in towing position, is sits just under the average vehicle’s roof level. This means that the extra wind resistance is next to nothing. Low fuel consumption and easier driving are two results of this feature.
- Storage – Folding caravans can be easily stored away without the need of having lots of space in your home. The Carousel takes up much less space than typical caravans because of its size and so the possibilities are plentiful.
Gobur Carousel Standard 10/2T Specifications
- 2 berths
- Body Length: 3.10m
- Folded height: 1.4m
- Interior height: 1.86m
- Overall width: 2.08m
- MTPLM: 950kg
- Bed Size: 1.87m x 1.38m
- Awning: 670cm
