CLASSIFIEDS..Operating
Since 1997
As The owners of
Caravan Classifieds, we have been
involved in the Caravan Industry for many years.
We Also Own & Operate a Sales Yard since
1993. During this time we have had contact with
many people throughout the industry, as well as
with private buyers and sellers with both new
and second hand caravan sales.
We have received many
comments and suggestions about different
advertising techniques that have been used, with
varying success.
We have used these
experiences to compare various methods of
advertising and decided something new and
different was needed to satisfy the needs of
private buyer and sellers of caravans and
recreational vehicles. Part of our research
showed us that many caravan and RV users
regularly use the Internet to plan trips and for
general entertainment.

CARAVAN
BRAND CONSTRUCTION TYPES:
There
are 2 main construction types for Caravan
Manufacture, Meranti Timber &
Aluminium . Both of these have pros &
cons as to longevity, which are valid
points.
If you read the popular Caravan Magazines
Caravan World and Caravan & Motor
Home, you will notice articles, roadtests
and comments regarding this... Most of
the well known & Long Standing
Brands of Caravan made are Timber.
Framed...
*The main point to be aware of is it is
sometimes what you CANT see that makes the
difference!!
As we all know, Aluminium can give
a little lighter van,... but it can oxidize from
water or salt air, and the rivets can sheer
during travel, Also most of these vans in the
lower/mid price brackets do have a
content of timber,some amount of rot can still
occur in an aluminium framed van , also all
Internal Cabinetry Is Timber & Ply...
so it is not wise to allow ANY caravan to
leak and have it repaired/serviced as soon as
possible..
Meranti
Frame is a little heavier due to more
frame, it can get a localised rot if not
properly maintained and a leak occures,this easy
to repair, but Meranti gives strength and more
flexability to a caravan/poptop.
This Meranti frame in most Brands of van is
Glued, Screwed and Bolted to the Chassis, and is
easily replaced/repaired if damaged....
Note : Take Notice next time you
visit a Dealer Yard, No matter what brand of van
a Dealer sells NEW , you will Always find
both types of manufacture as USED
vans/poptops for sale in their
yards..!!
