Hi. We sold our caravan before Christmas and are now on the look out for a 6 berth with fixed bunks.

We like the Elddis Crusader Tempest and also their Avante 636. Swift and Lunar make similar layouts. We have been looking for a used one although some of the dealers have great deals on new 2013 models.

Having read some of the threads on here and also on UKCampsite it seems many people have problems with new vans and they have to have work done under warranty.  This really puts me off buying a new van and I wondered if people would feel that buying second
hand would be better as any issues have been sorted or if we could just end up buying a van with problems?? Would appreciate other peoples advice. Many thanks
