Motorhome and Caravan Pre-Purchase Inspections
Here is an example of the type of enquiry we sometimes get at Habcheck.
“Hi my family and I have just purchased our first caravan and unfortunately 3 weeks down the line found out the whole underneath is damp and rotting. So now in a trading standards dispute. I have found another one that I really like. A Hoby prestige Luxe 640 in Doncaster. Before purchasing another one I think we need to get it checked over by someone who knows what they are looking at. Is this something we can do? Many thanks.”
Better to be Safe Than Sorry
Well, I don’t think I need to add anything more to this unfortunate customer’s explanation of what happened. However, it really does demonstrate that it is better to be safe than sorry when buying a motorhome or caravan – even when buying from a dealer. In this instance the issue was “only” damp. But it is easy to see how motorhomes and caravans can be sold with other more serious safety issues, putting your loved ones at risk.
