Hi guys, having to move up to fixed bunks as the grand kids Are coming with us on a regular basis, and having to convert the rear bunk and bottom bed in my sterling Eccles every night is getting a real chore especially with 2 four year olds diving onto the heap of cushions while I'm on my hands n knees sorting out a massive jigsaw of bed seats etc, anyway trying to avoid dealer prices thinking of going private, apart from going armed with my damp tester, what else should I look for, obviously a cirs certificate but not every one has one so apart from that are there any codes on windows and stamps to confirm age etc, thanks
Buying second hand advice

Hi smurff. I am sure someone can give you better advice than me on buying second hand. What I wanted to suggest is that you look out for an Elddis 526. They were made around 2010/2011. This gives you a fixed rear bed, a side dinette that makes up into bunks which you could just leave up and a front lounge. We find it a brilliant layout as the grandchildren can have "fixed" bunks when they come with us and we still get a decent bed. It is also a great couples van when the grandkids stay at home. The washroom is very tiny but we don't find that a problem. This layout is on a single axle. Adria and Lunar also did a similar single axle layout, but I can't remember the model numbers. Try Caravan finder.
