The seller obviously hoped you either didn't know what you were doing or hoped you liked the caravan so much you would buy it anyway - what a waste of time and effort.

We went to look at a caravan that was damp free. I asked "have you actually checked for damp". "Yes I have checked everywhere - if you find any damp I will pay your petrol costs". Guess what? We found damp in both seating lockers! And no, he didn't pay our petrol costs! Muppet

Hope you find your 'van soon.

i know exactly what the readings mean!!!
as you can see im no stranger to repairing them either
here
the fact is i dont have the time or inclination to do another one, if i never see any sikaflex, roll mastic or seamseal ever again it will be too soon,
so my mind was already made up
Still say this was an unpleasant answer to someone trying to help,what was the point of posting in the first place

Don't walk away, RUN! There are plenty of caravans out there looking for good homes.

Look for a Hymer - they have their Pual system, which doesnt have the same damp issues as traditional framed 'vans.
