I currently have an unhealthy urge to buy a caravan! Budget is around £500 ideally for a 2 berth.

I have somewhere to keep it at no cost and a towbar on my van so I am ready to go!

Is it do-able? Would you advise it?

I have been scouring eBay and Gumtree and there are loads of vans for up to £1000. There is a very nice Elddis at £1100 but it is just a bit steep for me at the minute.

I have a tent and camping gear from when I go away with friends on driving trips in my Boxster but I can't help but think for minimal outlay it would be nice to have something a bit more luxurious for when I am not on a driving trip and want to have a chilled few days away somewhere, especially if it is slightly out of season.

Any advice, encouragement or comments appreciated!

Cheers
