A necessary evil ...
 
Caravan buying :(

Oh no i have gone over to the dark side and need to buy a caravan (for racing, as camping in the paddock for 3 days really does my back in..... oh god i am gettting old)

So if anyone is happy to admit they have one/ have bort one / or know anything about...can you give me some advice on what to check when buying or any pit falls to look out for?

thank you

Didn't know that caravans had anything to do with diamonds

get a camper not a caravan, something like a nice old VW, looks cool, and does all that you need. but i asume that you will now say that you need to have a van for the bikes and therefore need to tow!

In that case i cant help!!

i don't have a van myself but spend as much as you can on it. i've sat in a few caravans in my time because of motorbike racing and you can always feel the difference...

I can ask a few of the guys that race up here and try to get some info for you.
