 G'day Rocket.  As far as caravans go - N.F.I.  But with yachts, houses and cars the bigger they are, the smaller the market.  Generally speaking a larger yacht requires more room to berth, harder to tow and is designed for more people (rather like houses and cars).  I'm guessing that this would apply to caravans and a really big van would be more suited to a larger family and therefore a smaller market.   However this is applying experience from diverse items rather than the specific.  Hope this is of some (probably not though) use to you.

Hi Rocket, 'afraid that like Keith I can't really share any caravan specific experiences, but don't let anyone put you off or try to knock the price down just because you may have a restricted market. I built a house (back in the '80s) designed specifically for me and my then teenage son. Sort of two independent units connected by a common living/cooking area. When the time came to sell the agents were all doom and gloom about such a "specific purpose" home. Sold within a month to another single mother with a teenage son! You can look at it from the point of view of having a smaller market for your sale, or that your van is less common and therefore harder for the buyer to find and less for them to choose frombiggrin
