Reasons to have a service 1,2,3.

There are many reasons why you have your van serviced on a regular basis, here I will look at three of them.

Reason #1. Peace of mind.

There are two types of caravan owner, the die hard out in all weathers, including snow, like my out-laws! or those that put their beloved van to bed for the winter. What ever camp you sit in, having an annual service, and knowing what to look out for can really help. Having an annual service gives you the confidence that it will tow well, get you to your destination safely, but also give you peace of mind. Knowing that even though the tyres on say, your newly purchased van are in age date, but actually need replacing due to cracking or perished walls, will save you 2 hours + at the side of a motorway and help maintain an appropriate blood pressure level!

Reason #2. Great selling point

When purchasing a new to you van, having a service history is a bonus that might just make you journey that little bit further to see it. Having been on many a long and exhausting hunt for a caravan in the past, and seen some amazing and not so amazing vans (I mean I would not put chickens in them), a full folder of paperwork including the servicing, is an essential key. Likewise when you are selling your precious caravan, and getting ready for your new love, service history as part of you sales patter is up the top of important requirements. The result of this is that it can add on £££ to your sale or at least easier to sell.

Reason #3. Long term money savings.

It can be easy to not pay too much attention to what your van is or isn’t doing. When you are leaving on your next expedition, you will check the tyres, break and indicator lights and any other little foibles that you have. So how does an annual service help save you money? As mentioned above it could add a few pounds onto your sale price, thus reducing the amount you have to find for your following purchase. Insurance companies like the fact you have service history, it shows you take care of your caravan. This can impact, along with other things, on the cost of your insurance. Also up there in the money saving camp is catching a problem early and other possible problems that you van is hiding from you.
