We have reluctantly decided to sell our caravan, as touring, which we have enjoyed for many years, is no longer practicable for health reasons. Our caravan is currently for sale via a broker and hopefully will find a buyer soon. Does anyone have experience of selling a van to one of those companies who advertise in the club magazine as we may need to look elsewhere if the van doesn't sell within a reasonable time?

Bluebell if you can stick with your broker.  I decided not to part ex our van last year so got a local non franchised dealer to sell.  We agree a minimum price I would except and for a fixed fee £500.00 he prepared ithe van, advertised it and displayed it On his forecourt.  It sold in a month and I got a heck of a lot more than I would have on part ex.  Afraid Wildwood is exactly right they will make a derisory offer and when they come an see it they will try to reduce the price further.
