Touring caravan enquiries need the model and layout as well as condition, equipment and practical towing or collection information.
Identify the touring caravan accurately
Give the exact make and model, year, number of berths and layout. Mention whether it is single or twin axle and include the model plate information if available. Clear specification helps distinguish caravans that look similar but have different layouts and equipment.
Explain what stays with the caravan
List the motor mover, awning, leisure battery, security devices and other included equipment, noting what works. If the caravan is on a seasonal pitch, explain which items need disconnecting or removing before it can leave. Site arrangements and collection access should be discussed before a date is agreed.
Describe readiness for movement
Tell us about known tyre, brake, wheel, hitch or road light issues and how long the caravan has been standing. Confirm whether keys for wheel locks and hitch locks are available. A caravan should not be assumed safe to tow simply because it can be rolled out of storage; any concerns need to be reviewed before movement.
Touring caravan details that help the assessment
Alongside the body and living space, describe the parts used for movement and the equipment supplied. This is particularly useful when the caravan has spent a long time on one pitch or in storage.
- Make, model, year, berth, layout, single or twin axle and available model plate details.
- Damp history, soft flooring, panel damage and service reports.
- Known condition of tyres, hitch, brakes, road lights and motor mover.
- Awning, battery, security devices, keys and available CRiS or ownership records.
Home, pitch or storage: explain collection access
We welcome vehicle enquiries from owners across the UK. Give the postcode where the vehicle is actually kept and explain any travel or access considerations. Collection availability, timing and any charges must be confirmed for the particular vehicle and location.
- At home: mention gates, parking restrictions and space to approach and move the vehicle.
- At a storage site or pitch: check opening hours, visitor requirements and whether you must attend.
- Tell us about missing keys, locks, flat batteries or any known reason the vehicle cannot move.
- Photograph access from a safe position; do not move an unsafe vehicle or climb onto a roof for pictures.
What to confirm before handing over your touring caravan
Keep the valuation, any inspection findings and the agreed sale arrangements together. A photo based estimate, an appointment and a completed purchase are different stages. Ask for any change to an offer to be explained before deciding whether to proceed.
- Confirm the agreed amount, what is included and whether any checks remain outstanding.
- Agree the payment method and collection arrangements, including any charges, before accepting.
- Check payment through your own account where a bank transfer is used before releasing the vehicle or keys.
- Keep a written record of the handover and the documents supplied.
