Best way to sell an elderly caravan?
My wife and I have reluctantly decided that it's time to give up
caravanning. Having acquired a holiday flat a couple of years ago, we spend all our spare time there and we know that, realistically, we're not going to be using the van again. It's a 1991 Bailey Pageant Magenta which we have owned from new - so it doesn't owe us a lot. It still has some life in it, and it would be nice to find a buyer who can get some use out of it rather than sending it to the breakers. Bearing in mind that there's probably a limited market for 21-year-old vans, does anyone have any sensible(!) suggestions as how best to go about selling it? TIA -- Cheers, Roger ____________ Please reply to Newsgroup. Whilst email address is valid, it is seldom checked.

TIA Cheers, Roger Top Gear ?...sorry...... A lot of them end up as paddock shelters/eating houses for the horsey set. No need for modernity/roadworthiness etc. for that. Does anything like that go on where you are? But I've no idea how they might be contacted.

People do give them away on Freecycle and Freegle.
I suppose that is a last resort. Regards David "Roger Mills" wrote in message ... My wife and I have reluctantly decided that it's time to give up caravanning.
