This could be a very precarious deal.
Are you in Spain now and can actually see the van or not?

Whilst the site owner may be owed rent, he cannot just sell it as it is not his property to dispose of.
You MUST see genuine official documentation giving him the right to sell.
As laws in Spain are different to the UK, you would be best advised to seek local legal clarification.

The VIN number stamped on the chassis or on a plate by the door should give you the age. It will be either the 10th or 11th digit,
If you can obtain that number, the age can be ascertained for you.

if you take this van are you the one to take on the future rent and site fees or are you taking the van away if you do take on the pitch you could be taking on a poor deal as left behind.
