OMG, what on earth is happening, fuel prices are through the roof ( greedy petrol stations ), so because of the situation people are not away as they were many years ago.
The wife and I are without a caravan ( 1st time in 29 years), as much as I want to buy a new unit I won’t, quite simply money, why are caravan dealers trying to sell 7/8 year old vans for more than they cost new.
I have noticed that people are now not prepared to pay the prices ( vans on the web NOT selling ).
I did however watch a van that was on an auction site not reaching the reserve price by £5000, well done the great British public, if we ALL STOP BUYING VANS then maybe just maybe the prices will come down.
I do hope this will happen because what was an affordable weekend away will now be a mortgage.
So stop rubbing your hands together caravan dealers and let the British public get out have fun and meet new people.
