Dicko; I have seen this guy advertising on other sites - I have not yet seen any qualifications for carrying out such inspections, with respect I would advise prospective buyers to seek a qualified professional possibly endorsed by Colin Young at Caravan Industry Association.

After getting your prospective purchase inspected & the faults found ''fixed up'' get it reinspected to make sure that the faults HAVE BEEN FIXED UP!

It's amazing how many faults are supposedly fixed but nothing's been done.

Best done by an experienced RV technician. As with everything in life you get what you pay for. Cheap inspection, cheap job.

Maybe a new boy on the block may actually provide a service for prospective buyers.

Again, no affiliation..

After reading about the problems that some people are experiencing with the purchase of a new caravan in this country, I begin to wonder about any "endorsement" that may exist from an industry representative organisation.

I also believe that this link would be helpful, to those purchasing a new RV

Also a bit sad that this sort of organisation is required, due to some RV's slipping through Quality Control
